My girls are averaging over 2 dozen eggs a day and moving to peak production soon. In another 2-3 weeks I should be getting 3 dozen. Gotta love farm fresh eggs!

What breed lays the dark red eggs? We have 4 EEs that are laying 2-4 eggs a day. Last weekend we had days of 4-3-4 !!
I am just waiting for one to go broody so we can let her set. We gave 6 eggs to a buddy who had a broody orpington and she hatched them all.
Ours lay robin blue, light blue, green and pink.

Sometimes, my black and brown sex links lay dark like that but, most of them are lighter but, then they are a couple years old and their color has faded.

GFG-what breed are yours?

My welsummers lay those beautiful dark eggs! I am so proud of them!

I have black sex link, and they lay nearly white eggs. Kinda sad.

Got a double yolker yesterday from my white rock/leghorn cross! :celebrate

I have WAY to many chickens and I am about to down size big time. I sell eggs every Sat. at a Farmers Market but with feed prices it is just not worth it any more so I am cutting back and just selling eggs out of my home...I will be able to enjoy my chickens more too! It will give me more time to just sit, watch and enjoy them. I am looking forward to that. :love

My preferred way to make a "boiled" egg. They always peel using this even real fresh eggs.

This one holds up to 7 eggs. Some egg cookers hold fewer and are oval shaped with a clear lid. I found this one on clearance just after Christmas.
Cool egg cooker. I don't think I have ever seen anything like that around here. I would get one if I could find one.
