Happy Labor Day!

We did a lot of laboring yesterday, so we're taking today off. Can't say the same for the ladies, though.

This is the first time we had three eggs by 11 a.m. I take this as a sign that our (slightly) youngest chicken, Babette (or Little Bob), has started laying. We'll know for sure if we get a fourth egg today.


I'm not sure there's anything better than eating eggs within a few hours of being laid (I heard major chicken honking around 8 a.m., so the first egg was probably laid then). We gave the ladies a peach and let them free range for a bit as a reward for their hard work. They enjoy free-ranging, as you can see:

The only thing more fun than digging to China  inside the coop,
is trying to dig to China
outside the coop.
