We shall see... <br /><br />We haven't eaten any yet. I wanted to crack the eggs open today but the kids want to wait until there is enough for everyone to have some.

The only things we've been doing is: (1) fruits and veggies that hold a lot of water that we've kept in the frig such as watermelon, cantaloupe, cucumbers, greens and (2) making sure they have a lot of water and some shade. We were very surprised with the egg today. We were told not to expect any in this heat. <br /><br />Our neighborhood has the policy of "if your neighbors don't complain about the chickens they are fine but if they complain the chickens have to go". I was very concerned when our chicken was squawking this morning. I know they cackle some when they lay an egg but it was a little excessive today. I'm hoping that as she gets used to the egg thing that she won't be quite so noisy!Adriane Whttp://lifeinawhitehouseonpennsylvaniaavenue.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2873919629381342545.post-82354860458982047882011-08-18T19:23:16.532-05:002011-08-18T19:23:16.532-05:00Whoo Hoo!

How are you keeping them (your chickens) so healthy is this heat? Keep up the good work. cJoyC. Joyhttp://joyandcomfort.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
