We harvested three eggs each on Friday and Saturday. That made 17 total for the week, 35 for the month. And there's one Red I'm not sure is laying yet. Perhaps they all are, and there's some mathmatical formula that can be applied to prove they are, with their off-days staggered so I only see three eggs a day.

Saturday I hauled some manure to the site of my father-in-law's garden, and got rid of more by giving it to a green-thumbed friend of mine. I cleaned out the hanging next boxes because the chicks have decided they make nice cons and have started spending the night in them. Fresh straw all around, and I worked on cutting boards for the repairing the floor in the coop.

When I first moved the Rosses in, there were wooden planks for the floor in the front quarter and back quarted of the coop. The rest is dirt floor. So I've salvaged some old lumber from a torn down shed and have been cutting it to size. Hopefully, in two weeks, I'll have all the pieces and the time and will clean out the existing litter, put down the new floor, and then cover it all up again with fresh straw, all in a good day's work. Which means cutting a few more planks over the next couple of days.
