Because, sadly, I can be relied on *only* to forget to email when I've delivered eggs to your door. Our current system of delivering eggs to MCers is thus: we keep a list of everyone who's said they want eggs, and we do three-egg deliveries to those households whenever we have multiples of three to deliver. We write the date of deliveries on our little list as we go, and that is what determines who gets the next delivery (whoever has a farthest-in-the-past date). It works.
Today I found Lulu in the coop, and it was nice to have eyewitness proof that she lays. I believe she's the one who lays (quite reliably) the blue eggs, and there she was! The other girls don't seem to bother her quite so much these days-- I spied her and Marie Antoinette eating without quarrel from the same pile of old oatmeal, veggie scraps and rinds.
Egg count: 3
Deliveries: our house, Curtiss', Lynn & Chuck's.
Notes: Only one five-egg day this week. Three seems to be the new five.
BTW: The girls! Check their names and pictures here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/hollysdays/sets/72157627881372746/with/6239434990/
