My chickens FINALLY started to lay eggs. We’ve been without for about a year and a half. I had to use up the 18 store bought eggs before I’d let anyone touch the fresh eggs. LOL! So I made a crustless quiche last night with ham, broccoli and cheese. It was super tasty and makes for a quick leftover lunch.

I’ve found that putting my boiled eggs in a mason jar with a little water and shaking them around like crazy makes the shell come right off with almost no blemishes. Mostly perfectly pretty eggs good for deviled eggs!

Are these your first chickens? What are your plans for keeping them going in Winter?

I’ve trying to learn about chickens, because I’d like to keep some when retirement finally gets here.

Congrats on the eggs. Never heard of the mason jar technique, clever.

Do you do that while they're still warm or do you put them in the fridge in the jar?
