Tending fine-fleeced Shetland sheep and a whole lot more on a small acreage in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Special delivery!
Brian just ran up to the house with this, our very first egg from one of our pullets: He saw a Speckled Sussex hen hop out of the nest box, leaving behind this warm little miracle. It's the first egg we've seen in quite a few days!
I'm a homeschooling, horse training, animal loving, garden growing, part-time business running, spinning and knitting shepherd who loves the Great Shepherd.

It is a thing of beauty!
I love pulling warm eggs out of the nest! I have been lucky, with 30 hens, I've yet to have one day with NO eggs.
Yay! Eggs are so much fun :)
Wish I could have a chicken in my apt.!!!
