Production Lull

Egg production is at an all time low here at Linda Lane Farms. I should actually say egg "consumption" is low. Jessie has a little congestion that he can't kick so we've had to put him on antibiotics. We tried to separate him from the girls, but he went a wee bit cuckoo! He was trying to fly out of his coop...which means he was hitting his head on the top of the run. It was pretty sad. So, I did what every mother at the grocery store does as her child screams for candy...I beat him. Haha! I kid! I kid! I gave in and put him back with the girls. So now they are ALL getting antibiotics which means we have to discard all of the eggs for now. Seems like a waste, but t least Jessie will feel better soon.
