Salad

12 banty eggs are in the fridge.  So cute, so small.  Here are a few photos.  I haven't time to write much. Tomorrow is pickle day: refrigerator dill and bread and butter.   Bob should have the laying/nesting coop finished enough to introduce it to the girls. 
I continue to use my kneely walker...whizzing down the front hall!  :-)

Chicken tail: they really have their bustles and petticoats.

The buff cochins are really filling out in weight as well as feather.  

Thanks for reading.

Eggs and Feet

The first egg.

We've got eggs!  Yep, the bantam hens started laying the last day our grandson was here.  He saw the first egg.  :-)    Of course these eggs are tiny...3-4 of these would make one large egg.  The clucking and gabawking that comes with laying hens was audible from the patio.  You know, they have to tell us they are laying. 

On a different note, I am back in my boot, with a wheelchair and a new wheely kneely walker that allows me to scoot along on flat surfaces.  It was expensive to rent, but truly wonderful! Of course Blue Cross and Blue Shield would not okay it.  Some days I wonder why I have insurance.  But, that's another blog.
