Do not. It's the most fun you'll ever have.

I'll be mom to my daughter and grown son. And let a hen be mother to chicks. I think it's meant to be that way anyhow!!

Ha HA!

Of course, you might not think so when you're up at 3AM frantically scrolling through articles on assisted hatches to try and save a stuck chick, buut....

Does he have a role bunch of Chef friends there?
Recipe traders?

I am not entirely sure but he and his Facebook follower whatevers do post a lot of food pictures back and forth...especially when they get something crazy and monstrous at eateries (I don't want to say restaurants because they may include food truck photos). He mainly uses it for his racing stuff. He's away this weekend doing that. I have no idea if it's AER, Extreme Experience, or Lemons. He just don't do Nascar. However...IMO...Lemons looks a lot like Nascar...just with hoopties. If any of you are from the Carolinas (I think this is where it happened) there is an article on how one of the cars, done up from a military chopper, caught fire...at...get this....a gas station of all places. Great to see a chopper/lemons car on fire near gas pumps.

Good news!

The magic, white sorta orbs I found in the chicken coop were indeed eggs. They tasted like jalapenos and onions topped with Tony's when scrambled and cooked with jalapenos and onions topped with Tony's. After having to look closer at some phenomenal , and I do mean phenomenal, putrid poo piles, I wanted to be sure. How these girls drop these kind of phenomenal putrid poo piles, I don't want to know. I'm perplexed!

Did I tell you I got eggs? 2-1-2-1 is the rhythm. Official total is 6 magic, white sorta orbs, with 3 confirmed to be indeed eggs. I'll expect 2 this afternoon. In the nest box on top of the golf balls. If another hen wishes to surprise me, I am prepared.

I'm researching egg consistency. Are fresh eggs watery? Why are store egg more firm? Is this age related? Am I being obsessive? Is this an indication of an illness? Why do we get sick? Does whiskey work to cure everything? Oh look! A squirrel...

Watery eggs and soft yolks are signs of a new layer and lack of protein. My nutritionist also told me feeding "too many" green leafy garden treats can cause it as well.

"too many" - is there such a thing? The bartender and I keep having this discussion. I guess I will invite the nutritionist to get another opinion.

Wait - is the nutritionist "for" or "against"? This is important.

Wait till you get a soft shell egg or shell-less egg. Blah... I no longer mind the poop after finding one of those.
