Thankful for my backyard #chickens who have done an amazing job keeping us fully stocked with #eggs !

Especially during this time of soaring prices 💔

I’d love to have enough to supply our neighbors/community too - maybe someday! I think I’d need more chickens first 😂

@mosteller How many hens do you have? I was sharing eggs with my neighbors with just 3 laying hens.

I'm just happy my girls have gone back to laying after their winter vacation.

@annaraven I have 4 for a family of 5 (we might eat more eggs than most, we went through 15 eggs just today!)
@mosteller Okay - with a family of 5, I'm sure you'll be going thru a lot of eggs. Hope your hens pick up production with the spring.

@annaraven Haha, yes, and it is mostly the toddlers with the high egg consumption! I’m not complaining at all though, I’m happy they both like something so easy and versatile 😍

And thank you! Hope your hens pick up production come spring too!🥚 Doesn’t feel too far off with the sun sticking around a bit longer each day ☀️🌱

@mosteller my girls haven't laid in weeks! Talked husband in to 4 chicks in March if they are available.
@Knitonepugtwo I preordered 6 runner ducklings for March! They will hopefully be multi purpose… eggs and slug patrol 😂
@mosteller A friend has ducks! They look like fun, though we have pretty limited space.
