It’s So Easy to Fool a Human

This summer, with a flock of yearling hens and a dozen or so older ladies, I was averaging a dozen eggs a day. But as the year turned toward fall, and some of the girls molted, I started getting only three or four.

Yesterday, I didn’t get a single egg. I was even thinking I might have to buy eggs before spring when I will raise a few pullets with my meat birds.

Then, today! Today I got seven eggs. I know, the average of three to four still holds, but… Yeah, things are looking up.
