Not sure if she's laid in a couple days. Figured...

    Topic of the Week - Boredom Busters for Winter

    Bag your Dried leaves for free enrichment to get through the winter. Lots of them! You'll thank me later! 12 bags was not enough for us last year! Hens LOVE scratching through the leaves with fresh scratch thrown down <3 I love to see them 'exercising' when its too bad out to do free range.
