Woo Hoo!! An Egg!
Can't believe it. When I went out this morning I only saw one hen. Oh no! But then I noticed the rooster was in one of the nesting boxes. Bless his heart. Trying to lay me an egg. And in another box was the other hen.
The rooster squeezed his big self out of the box and strutted around a bit. The other hen didn't want to get up. But she did and started putting up a big ruckus. Stood at the nesting box opening and fussed big time; Then she came on out. Low and behold there was this beautiful egg. Juevos numero uno! I truly believe she was so irritated at me she popped an egg out. Oh well. I think it's a good omen. Not quite an omelette, but a start.
