As anyone still checking in may have guessed, not much has been happening down on the farm in the dark days of winter. However my wondrous chickens are all grown up and laying eggs every day. A dozen or two to the family with the new baby next door, and last weekend a delicious scramble to feed the pilgrims in town to celebrate my friend Val's birthday.
Oh who can keep track by now? Everyone but Sol is laying, with great drama and loud cackling support. I gave my first dozen away to my very understanding neighbors this week...I told them chickens were quiet. Oops.
