chickens


On July 4th we received 16 chicks from my uncle. We now have eight hens. We get about six eggs a day. We have managed to eat lots of eggs recently. We especially like egg burritos.


Spencer killed four roosters. They were waking up my children (not to mention the whole neighborhood) at 6 a.m. ....Not OK!!! So they had to go "the way of all the earth". The roosters were pretty tasty on our dinner plate, a little tough. The kids are "in the know" and they actually enjoyed eating them.

This has been an interesting and memorable experience for our family.
