The girls laid 9 eggs today and 8 of them were large. I'm so proud...but I am also flooded with eggs!!! The Beast said we have too many chickens and he may have a point. But I hate the thought of just what he would do with what he considers *excess*. If we didn't have Freddy, I could keep the eggs in a basket on the counter. But, if there's the chance that they are fertilized, then they have to go in the fridge. Besides the 3-1/2 dozen that I have in cartons, the bowl I have the other eggs in overfloweth!
I slept well last night....just 3 hours in a row due to waking for a bathroom break. But I was able to go right back to sleep and I woke up normally at 8am feeling good. I felt so good that I even got dressed!
However, I fell asleep and, although I woke up several times during the night, I didn't finish this blog. I just was so tired that I couldn't even think of doing it. So I beg your forgiveness. I ended up sleeping until noon before I could think about getting up. Poor Baron and the Beast had the same problem except the Beast forced himself to get up....just a little later than his usual time....LOL.
I'm going to just get this posted with one thing from today. Only four eggs this morning and two were large, two were kind of medium in size. GAH!!! I told the Beast he needed to make his banana bread and I'll make some egg salad. After that...I have no idea what I am going to do. Maybe send some over to the Beast's friends from his church that live around us.
Love you all. Be good and be kind. It's good for everyone. ***Hugs***
I always kept some hard boiled in the fridge for snacks.
ReplyDeleteYou need more friends.
As long as your house isn't hot enough to incubate the eggs, they will be fine. You can also scramble them and put them in ice cube trays to freeze.
