Kind of a big deal


T-Rex laid an extra large egg today. I'm guessing it's a double-yolked egg. I can't imagine the sounds she must've made as that was coming through. The egg is so large that I can't shut the lid on the egg carton. She's been laying consistently about 6 times a week. I keep waiting for Potato, but I worried she might be slow to mature. I read some Brahmas can take up to 2 years to lay an egg! What??? I've switched them over to organic feed, which is a little more than the regular kind. I think it's worth it though. I let them run around and eat all the weeds. I also read that the more foraging a chicken does, the better the eggs taste!
