My son decided we needed chickens. My stepson had way to many, so DS bought some & fixed up an old corn crib/granary for them. DW & DS went to pick them up this morning. They got 24. Some Barred Rocks, Americanas, & leghorns. These have been laying so hopefully we will have eggs!
Some are tough looking because they had roosters over there. No roosters here!
Do I have to do the "Chicken Dance" to join this group ? LOL!
Bernie
Chickens here!
Why yes, you DO have to do the chicken dance and a video must be posted.......
Welcome and congratulations on your chickens. Life will never be the same.
LOL Lets see it!
Picture, but a little dark.
I see the picture, but nobody's dancing.
It looks like they will be glad to be away from the rooster!
CHICKEN DANCE! CHICKEN DANCE!
That's a wonderful idea! Anyone else who is in, it's chicken dance or the cold shoulder!
Probably will be doing chicken dance tonight. I am going to a nieces wedding & that is tradition at the wedding dance.
Bernie
LOL..... welcome to the flock
Julie =0)
CONGRATS BERNIE!!
Umm, where is the video of the dance??
No chicken dance at the wedding, I am throughly disappointed.
Getting about 20 eggs per day, Good Hens!!
I'd be dancing if I got 20 eggs a day....
That's just not right! We are only getting 9-10 a day! LOL
Maybe she dances for her chickens, just not us.
My son lays the law down to them ladies, Eggs or Else!!
We are going to take them to Farmers Market tomorrow. We are thinking $2.50 a dozen.
Bernie
LOL Bernie! Maybe he should come talk to mine. :) I really can't complain. I've only had them since the end of April and they were day olds.
Hubby and I made it a point to check out the brown eggs at the grocery. They have a brand called "Cage Free" organic. They are size large eggs that sell for $2.99 per dozen.
Someone told me the people down the road sell theirs for $1.50. I've not had time to confirm it. I have not posted a sign yet or anything as I still need egg cartons. I did notice they've covered their sign the last week or so.
Bernie, Check around for egg prices in your area. We get $4 and some at our markets get $4.50. Other market they get $3?
They were $3 at St.Paul Farmers Market yesterday.
Our market one sells for $2.50 but only has a few.
I'll be happy with $2.50.
