I thought I would keep track of how many eggs we're getting daily. Monday was the highest egg count day of the week. The eggs in the above bowl are all of the eggs I gathered from the girls on Monday. The bowl is nearly over flowing, and it's the largest bowl I have in the house!
With the recent bumper crop, I thought it might be fun to have a little contest!
To Enter:
Post a comment on this entry with your guess as to how many eggs are in the bowl.
If more than one of you guess correctly, all names with the correct number will be entered into a drawing and one name will be selected. If no one guesses correctly, all names will be entered into the drawing, and one name will be chosen.
The Prize:
This cutie of a notepad I stitched up this evening, and a farm themed stay-sharp pencil. The notepad measures 4.5" x 3.5", just the perfect size for tossing into your handbag! The pencil measures just shy of 4".
One entry per person, please! Entry deadline: Thursday, 6pm Central.
My guess is 56. Have a great day!

I'm guessing 45...I just wanted to tell you that I love your site. I bought frizzles after seeing yours.. I had no idea such a thing existed. We have big chickens in one coop, silkies and such in another, and my DD's seramas in a coop of their own. How many do you have? We are having a time with ours now. In our big coop with our egg layers we have ended up w/ a ton of roosters. We had a mama set and guess what ROOSTERS! They are big now and well lets just say poor hens. I am fixing to get rid of them this weekend. That was long, but I just wanted you to know I love your site.
