We have 13 hens living here, but we are still buying eggs. A couple weekends ago Ted deep cleaned the coop, an envious job to no one. He discovered over 30 eggs hidden in a corner where we couldn't see or access without unscrewing one of the sides. The eggs had to be thrown away. Poor chickens, all that effort to make and lay the egg and then bye bye they went. I was relieved that they are still laying. I was quite confused and nervous for their future as we still don't know where we will be living next, and if chickens aren't part of the our next home I think finding homes for laying hens that don't lay would be an uphill challenge. I'm relieved that's not the case. Farm fresh eggs, we miss you!
