Eggciting!!!!!!

We came back from our weekend on the island to find out that two chickens were laying eggs and later in the week we started to get three a day. I was collecting them until we had our first dozen and now we are having to eat a lot more eggs to keep up. They are very nice eggs.

Our First Dozen

The little off white one was a surprise. We found out it is Trelawney.
Lavender is on the mend. She survived the weekend we were away and is continuing to heal. She still has to be isolated until she completely heals. I peeked today at the wound and it is still quite damaged but she is actually starting to grow some feathers back too. She enjoys getting out and walking around the yard. She is not stepping on her other foot anymore.

I finally was able to start making some apple pies with the apples the girls and I picked. Heather helped by making the leaves. The apples are so good, I have had to cut down on the sugar I mix with the apples. Good excuse to eat pie for breakfast.
