So this morning we were worried cause 4 of the free range hens were missing. By the afternoon we spotted them all except a young hen that had slept in the tree last night. If you taste like chicken it is not a good idea to sleep in trees, on the ground or anywhere that is not your coop. Sad, but true :( We plan to raise and keep a 2nd flock of Easter Eggers so they will start laying in Spring. I think that they only lay really well for a few years so soon I will need my backup flock. I really need a larger incubator too. I just don't hatch enough at a time. This batch I have now I plan to keep for myself and not post for sale anywhere. It will be fun to raise a new batch of keepers ;)
