    Yesterday I spent the day in the coop. I swapped their nest and food boxes to the opposite wall. I did this to make it easier to clean and collect eggs . I also moved my metal rooster from the inside to on top of the roof.  I also got 4 eggs :} 

   Today, when I got home from school I went to the coop and I found out that there were 4 eggs but.... They were eating one of rosa's light brown egg. :( I hope that this does not turn into a habit.

 Sorry that I have not updated lately. :(
  

     So I got two eggs in the morning, then I got  three more in the afternoon. In the evening I got one more.   After a delicious Sunday morning brunch, our family walked to Grandma's house.  It is a one mile walk through the woods behind our house.  It was snowing hard, and all the snow and our snow pants and boots made it hard to walk.
   When I got to Grandma's I started to snowblow her driveway, up by her house while dad plowed the rest of the driveway. We spent seven hours at her house, playing pool, shoveling, and snacking.

Today was a typical day, I got four eggs. But my black and white girl, has not been giving that much eggs :) A few weeks ago I started to give them crushed up egg shells. We have been incubating some eggs for 21 days now but they did not hatch:(              












 A fertilized egg starts developing into a chicken when its temperature reaches 86 degrees.
