This dude was hanging out with us in our last bean field. He was gobbling up mice as they ran out of the beans. He'd run right along side of the combine. Really cool to see him that close. My husband was like no you can't pet that dog! πππ€
Heading out to the field shortly but first a funny story.
My son goes to a University nearby. He sits by a girl who has never had farm fresh eggs. So he brought her some. The next week she said I'm going to need some more of those eggs. So another girl overheard them and said oh you got chickens? Can I have eggs too? So in he went Monday with 2 dozen eggs. The other boys and the professor were teasing him on what a great way it was to pick up "chicks". π€ My son said well if you need to impress a girl I can be your egg dealer. πππ₯π₯π₯
Chicken fact!! Growing up there was always the white egg vs brown egg question. But now that we have chickens, I love seen all the SHADES of brown. These are all from our Copper marans. They are very consistent layers and I love it when we get super dark eggs. We also get some speckles sometimes. Iβve never really noticed a taste differenceβ¦ but I still prefer these. How about you?
π€π€π Had to get gas today. Stopped at a place right by where I work. Paid almost 4.69/gallon. On my way home, gas was way cheaper everywhere else. I think gas stations are price gouging. Next time I'll just stop at Kroger $4.07 π«ͺπ
