Hi Asta! I’m sorry to say that all our chickens… and my beloved Rooster Rocky, have become victims of a predator. We are now in the process of building a better chicken coop that will have an automatic open/close door. I sure do miss them and can’t wait to have a full flock of chickens and another Rooster. Although my Rocky boy won’t ever be replaced!

I would never have believed there could be such a difference in eggs…until we began raising our own hens. Our hens are totally cage free, free range, do-what-they-want on the farm birds. The eggs they lay are fabulous. It would be nice if they laid ALL the eggs in the nesting boxes we provide, but they don’t always cooperate. We love having chickens loose on the farm…though, of course, so do the predators that come for chicken dinners from time to time.

I usually have a dozen in the fridge and a dozen in my egg basket on the countertop. Best for baking to use them at room temperature.

In France, the eggs sit on shelves in the store unrefrigerated. I was told by a farmer that you don’t need to refrigerate eggs but it is recommended to keep them refrigerated if they already have been.
