2 from 6 girls. Yesterday 4, 3 the day before and after that I got 4 five days in a row

Out of 8 layers - got 2 eggs. I am a bit excited, my pullet hatched in July - is beginning to redden. But what I am questioning is that come the spring, I will have a dozen laying...and to be honest, the two eggs a day are meeting our needs if I am a bit careful.

I do have eggs in glass jars to help eek it out until spring for baking.

I tried selling my eggs but no one wants to buy them so I have been giving them away to neighbors, friends, family and people at the stores I shop at. If selling doesn't work for you then you can always ask people that might be quick to accept the offer.

I have never liked the work of selling, and in my flock, it is feast or famine when it comes to eggs. I have been blessed with a large family, and I have often given them away in thanks of a favor.

I am just really telling myself, I should easily reduce the flock by half. For years and years, I did not have the strongest of coop/runs. Now I do, and my predator loss has gone way down. So I need to make some soup, or give some hens away. Easy to talk the talk, a little more work to do the job.

I kept telling my husband that I wanted to get 6 more chickens but I quickly realized that no one in our family is genuinely going to take them and actually use them. I gave about 5-6 dozen to our daughter in law and found out that she was throwing them away because she didn't want to eat them because she believed they had blood in them. It really sucks to know that my children would rather buy eggs with toxic chemicals in them and the chickens are just so damned neglected and abused it's pathetic but they would rather have that crap versus the all natural eggs I get on a daily basis.
