Eggs at last...

Our first egg of the season - hurrah!

    Hooray. You can certainly tell the difference between a freshly laid egg and those bought from the supermarket. Cute eggcup.

    Great minds think alike! We are now up to 3 a day - but only recently! Hopefully egg count will increase when Mabel returns from her sabatical - together with new chap in her life!!

    So is it true that if your hens browse on grass their egg yolks are more yellow?

    Hi - thanks everyone, fortunately this was the first many so we didnt have to fight over it - instead we indulged in chocolate pancakes which were far too nice!
    I think your right about the yolks GLA, I dont know if its due to being grass fed or just being newer but our yolks are much yellower.
