It's been a while since I have given an avian update. We are now down to four ladies, having given away the roosters to a nice older man and his wife who are starting a small farm. It was a strange call that I got while bowling with the church youth group. When I answered my cell, my husband simply stated "We are now cockless." Took me a minute to catch up with him on that one!
The ladies are getting big, and we think they should start laying around the end of August or early September. Fresh eggs - YUM! I may need to find a lot of egg recipes, though. If they each lay an egg a day, as we expect, that's 28 eggs each week! My neighbors may find some fresh eggs on their doorsteps...
