We had to buy 10-20 dozen eggs per week last year to keep up with demand so we got more hens. And now we have too many eggs!
Our broody hen who hatched 11 eggs got killed by an owl, we suspect. Her carcass was in the chicken yard yesterday morning. 7 of her babies are also missing. Very sad. Luckily the 4 remaining chicks are feathered out and doing ok.
That's a bummer!
