You Go Girl!!!


I just went out to put the animals to bed... and make my egg rounds, and had a I love my farm life moment. There were two eggs in the nest, the one was my orpingtons daily brown egg. The other was MISS MUFFETS!!!!!! At least I think its hers. Fifi lays white eggs, this egg was slightly brown, so I'm thinking its not just a dwarf egg from Fifi. Muffet must be getting her game on!!! I did catch her in the garage with Henry today... Let me just fill you in on Muffet... She is at least nine years old! She sadly lost her life partner this spring, but it looks as if the new flock is bringing out her inner youth! How funnie! I'm real green in the chicken department... Has anyone else ever had a nine year old hen lay eggs?
Miss Muffet is the hen on the right, the white one is Fifi and the black one is named Shaniqua.
