Giant Egg and Outdoor Cats


  Our chickens have had a recent uptick in egg production. Some were undoubtedly NOT laying before, and now are getting back into their normal routine. The result has been some incredibly large eggs; that's because when a chicken is starting to lay regularly again, she may produce some double yolk eggs.  You can see how enormous the one on the far left side is.  Poor chicken, pushing that thing out!  They don't seem to mind :-).


  Our outdoor cats have mostly done well this very cold and snowy winter. We have little Tupperware "huts" set up on the front porch, lined with blankets, and they pile in there on cold nights.  Of course we lost Sunny a couple of weeks ago, but that could have happened any time of year.
