Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

Wait never mind TN, the dark brown eggs pic is from Savannahmom.

Yes she is my 2nd child. I did not cry when my oldest went to school but for some reason I teared up as I left her room this morning. It has been a stressful two days for me. And today started off bad with her crying, not wanting to get dressed or even leave the house. So there I was trying to be gentle yet forceful with her to even make it there on time. So I guess by the time I left her I was an emotional mess. But on a good note her teacher emailed me to tell me she was doing wonderful and smiling and answering questions!!

Your pie is adorable! I don't know a thing about polish or leghorns or bitty white eggs, b ut I love your collection on your skelter. I need to get one.

I got my skelter from Amazon. I paid a bit more for it, but I had a lot of Amazon credits, so it worked out better for me. Manna Pro has them as well, and they are a bit cheaper, but don't know what the shipping would be.

Here she is before I left her.

Well isn't baby TN just downright adorable.

I do nursery a lot for my church on Sundays and I often have to take screaming kids from parents. And then they cry too when being picked up. But most times the I between time is filled with playing and fun!!!! Its the poor parents who suffer more!!!!

Aw TN. It's harder when THEY cry, but I just try to be positive "But you'll have SO much fun!" If you're still posting from your phone, you can put multiple pics in the same post. Just hit upload, pick one pic, click submit, then move the cursor down from where your code appears in your post and then click the little picture button again and do upload, submit, etc...for each pic. Or put them in separate posts if you like, either way works for us I just wondered if you'd tried that yet.

I've seen the skelters on amazon and mana pro, just need to pull the trigger on one.

Lot of running in and out of the coop today. Crazy birds. Steven swooped right through my yard with me sitting out there! I was sitting my chair like 10 feet away from the run watching the girls to see why they're running in and out and he zoomed right through the yard.

If you've not seen my coop/run setup, I have a nice coop and nice sized run tucked under some pine trees in my yard. I built the whole works several months ago, as soon as the snow melted. It is fully covered and there is buried wire as well to keep diggers out. It's chicken wire, so it's not the most secure I know, but it'll keep hawks out. Poor Steven. We've let the girls out for some short range time the last few nights but other than that they've had to be confined to their run most of the time which is ok since that's how it will be when we're on vacation anyway. Might as well get used to it. It's plenty big for them, we just enjoyed watching them run around and eat the grass.

Ok thanks Mortie. I will try it again. I think what I wasn't doing right was moving my cursor down b/c when I would try to post more than one you couldn't see any but the last. I need a cute basket thingy for when I start to get enough eggs too.

 

[mortie]

Yeah you have to move the cursor without messing up the code. I just tap after it and then hit enter to move to the next line and post another pic.

Here is (I hope) two pics of the EE that has given me the 3 eggs. Minus the one my baby dropped sigh......
