MC Eggs are now being delivered by kids! Another one of our Chicken-Team hopes and dreams, realized. Thanks to Tatum Day, Jessie & Jadon, who delivered eggs (with gentle guidance from Brie) to ten households this weekend! That's right, there were over 30 eggs awaiting delivery on Sunday. The girls are on fire! If your child wants in on the action, please email myself, Paul, Holly or Jane, and we will help make it so.
I paid a night-visit to the girls a few days ago. The weather is warm again, and Lulu has resumed sleeping on her outside perch (the knobby knee of that wild rose bush, close to the human door). It never fails to amuse me how early the chickens settle in for the night. The sky is still pale blue.
Things you might find if you visit the chickens:
- a hanging bunch of collards (chicken toy! but I think I'm more into it than the chickens)
- a crust of bread in the nesting box (not sure who did this... a chicken? or a pint-sized admirer?)
- also in the nesting box-- more eggs than you'd expect (I collected 8 in one day last week)
- jumping jehoshaphat! Mimi will leap for snacks! Hold a piece of popcorn in your hand and be brave! Thanks to Janis & Joel for noticing this untapped reservoir of entertainment.
