What do you eat?
We got our first chickens ten years ago for fun and fresh eggs.  We didn’t expect the sea change that occurred, although now I can’t imagine anything less.  Our lives were changed forever by five Barred Rocks.  There is nothing like a fresh egg.  Once you taste one you never go back to those mystery eggs sold in most supermarkets. *  The basic ingredient is so astoundingly good that it...
