I still remember walking down to my chickens’ nesting boxes for the first time and picking up those warm fresh eggs!
Knowing the chicken breeds that lay lots of eggs is important.

Three out of my five Daisys have finally decided to start laying. Two of them are a couple weeks younger than the others, so they should start laying pretty shortly two.
I'm glad, it flat pisses me off to pay the outrageous price of eggs when I've got 7 alleged egg makers out there.
What's weird is up until now is that Two Point Five, my monster rooster, has paid those pullets no mind whatsoever, but now that they're beginning to lay, he can't stay away from their coop. All he does is patrol back and forth in front of it waiting for his chance. There's been a couple of times they've escaped with him right there, and he nails them on the spot. I mean, I'm watching free poultry porn right there at my feet.
The first time it happened I went in and told Lisa about it, laughing my ass off at how that chicken got up looking all violated and shit, and Lisa shook her head and told me that the proper expression would be that 2.5 mated with the chicken, not that he was 'getting himself some pullet pussy'.
