Random Summer Ramblings

So what should I be posting about now??


My iPod nano broke! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?! :-(
Luckily, it's still covered by the warranty. I think I just have to get the battery replaced, so with the warranty, it should be free. I'm going in today. :-P

I've been listening to music by Owl City. I LOVE it! The thing that stinks, though, is my brother gave me I think 3 or 4 albums, and then my iPod broke. So I can barely enjoy it. :'-(
lol

Hummm...my chickens are laying eggs! Honestly, I'm not sure how many eggs we get a day right now...Atleast a dozen. Maybe 14??

It's been raining here ALL the time. This summer kinda stinks. We rarely have a sunny, hot day. I've only been to the beach 3 times. That's crazy, compared to going EVERY DAY last year.

I'm taking violin lessons this summer...I love it. :)

I GOT A NEW COMPUTER MONITOR! It's a big flat screen. :) Makes my room look modern. :)

Wooooo, I almost forgot. Jean, my trainer, has a Welsh/Thoroughbred cross pony named Bonita that I rode last winter. I've been riding her this week and I'm going to school her at a show on Sunday! :) Bonita was kinda crazy at her last show, she's only 6, so she needs more experience...she's currently listed for sale as well. I'm going to the barn soon to ride...

My chickens are shrieking right now. Those egg-layin' birds. :-P

This has got to be the most random post ever. Adios amigos.

BTW, the picture is of our sky literally 15 minutes ago. :)

Double-Yolker...

READ POST BELOW FIRST

...and it was delicious.
We didn't ever get a double yolked egg out of our other birds; not that i know of, anyway. I hope this keeps up! :D

Can It Be?!! Yey for the Lady-Birds!

I think it might just be.

When chickens are raised, they normally begin to lay eggs around 20 weeks of age. They will start laying eggs regularly a few weeks after. I'm not sure how soon our chicks started laying last time, but it seems we might just have our first egg!

Bibbi and Survivor have been laying eggs almost daily for awhile. The large, green egg on the left is her's (roughly 2.7 ounces). Bibbi lays the small tanish-white egg (middle egg) (1.8 ounces). Today I went to the coop and found one egg...and it's pretty brown. I'd be willing to bet that one of our "little ladies" has started laying! :D It's brown, 2 ounces (far right). I'm not sure, unfortunately, who laid it...I think it might have been one of the Black Sex links...but I'm not sure. I'm going to eat it tonight. I'll let you know how it tastes. :-P

See it over there?? What a nice little egg. :)

I counted and if the chicks were really born on February 11 (we got them the 12th) then today would be, on the dot, their 18-week Birthday! It's kinda early to start laying, I guess, but that's fine with me! :D
Ok, that's the news of the week...I'll let you know if this new egg keeps "appearing". ;)

Chicken Update
