There is nothing like eating an egg that has been produced by one of your hens. The real meaning of the term free range.

Also hens will lay an egg a day until they moult in the fall or winter.

They’ll start laying again as the days get longer in January. But usually older hens slow down on the egg-laying, so you’ll only get an egg every two or three days. thanks..

I don’t raise chickens for butchering (Im vegetarian), and since these are the only eggs I eat as I know the chickens are treated humanely, having a quality chicken house is a primary concern. The bigger the better in my opinion!

And you’re right about them supplying more eggs than most people need – many people make the mistake of getting too many chickens when the average family only needs 2 or 3 to supply their eggs needs!
