After what seems to have been an eternity of getting hardly any eggs due to the Winter … finally, today, we got our full complement of seven eggs from the seven chickens.
We had a few days of no eggs … and a mean-average of not very many … with Spring on it’s way we hope that they chooks will go from strength to strength and start to pay their way. Which is just as well as the ‘Chicken Fund’, which is used to pay for their food and bits and bobs, is down to the last tenner.
The following tally may be of interest … religiously completed (just don’t look too closely at the adding up) each day it gives us a good idea of what’s going on inside those little chickens bird brains (click to zoom in)
I keep all my stats on a complicated spreadsheet … sad, or what?! :D
I keep all mine in a small notebook with a chicken on the cover…
and pictures of different girls eggs…
and the egg total is identifiable to each feathery lady…
so not only do I know how many have been laid every day, but who laid them..
I need to get out more I think!
