That's excellent, GC6! I wish I could have some, but they won't allow me to raise chickens in the suburbs, but how I would love to. My Grandpa raised his own in western Kansas and had fresh eggs every day.

When I was 6-7yo, my "job" was to gather the eggs. I vividly remember being pecked by an old setting hen that was determined to be a mother hen.
At my grandpa's I gathered his eggs from troughs in his barn. He fooled his hens into laying their eggs there by having old white door knobs in the nests. lol
