Fresh brown eggs...maybe. I remember when my family had chickens, ducks and geese and lots of them. We all got a turn at picking up the eggs in the hen house, a chore that I tried enormously to avoid as those chicks can peck you something fierce! But it is certainly something I remember fondly about growing up. We sometimes would get to hatch the eggs in the incubator. Chicks and ducks! I loved the ducks! Not so much the geese but hey, it was amazing to wait and wait on the little chicks to hatch and to actually see them peck their way out into this crazy world!
When Erica was in first grade, her class hatched chicks and I was so thrilled that she'd get to see this. Shane has not yet got to experience this grand event but maybe soon he will. :)
