All Them Eggs


I thought it was time to show you the results of having eight hens, just look at all those eggs! The small ones are from our two bantam hens Rhodey and Red (Rhode Island and New Hampshire Red)and this is only what was left after we gave a dozen to Lou my mother in law next door. They are really molting quite a lot now, but certainly they are doing well in the egg laying department. Because they have been in small cages, their wings are still quite weak and one was seen to almost fly up to the outside perch, before smacking into it at breast height!
