my neighbors are elderly and are so sweet. they let me use their kennel as a chicken coop. well when i went over to ask them a question they told me that my chickens whom i let run free for the past 2 or 3 months have been going under their gazebo. so tonight i went to go check on the chickens and went to look under the gazebo and i found a army of eggs! every time i took 2 or 3 eggs out the leaves behind them would expose 4 more eggs. sofar i have gotten out 12 or so eggs. all bad because of the cold weather and them being outside for who knows how long! They are all brown so that means my rhode island red has been hard at work! i have a Jersey giant hen also but i thought they laid white eggs? do they? but anyways i have lots of work to do tomorrow afternoon when i get home from school! haha. i counted about 8 more eggs that i had to get but it was wet and cold outside so i left them.
