Steady Increase in Egg Production

Wow!  Egg production is steadily picking up.  Over the weekend I started getting 5 or 6 eggs daily.  That's from 11 hens... the original 9 Dominics and the 2 young Barred Rocks.  Looks like the young hens have started to lay, too.  I've seen a few smaller, browner, eggs with more speckles that I'm assuming are theirs.

No wonder eggs became associated with Easter. By the time that spring holiday rolls around, the nests will be full of eggs!
