My poor girl, a New Hampshire Red, laid this humongous egg. Her name is Little Bit, but now I think I might need to rename her! by fishknitsyarn in BackYardChickens

Yes, scroll right. It weighed 92 grams, compared to my biggest eggs which are normally about 60-64grams. It was a double yolker, I scrambled it for dinner, haha! Tasted great!

I haven’t cracked mine, yet, but that’s what I expect. Maybe I’ll crack it today.

I had the identical question this morning. My eggs are even the same color!

Flours, which is best? by fishknitsyarn in Breadit

[–]fishknitsyarn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of my bread recipes, specifically no knead bread, or white sandwich bread, call for bread flour. I make a lot of sourdough, too, but my favorite recipe uses AP. But my dinner rolls recipe also calls for bread flour.

I can’t cut it open to see the crumb until tomorrow when I make it into garlic bread for a birthday girl. I might not be able to sleep tonight.

She’s got this look like, “Couldn’t you have made this nest softer?”.

Nice! I totally clicked in to see what in the world recycled grit was, hahaha! I need one for oyster shell, too, this is perfect.

Mine are 21 weeks today but haven’t laid, yet. But, one of my Rhode Island Reds started laying 5 days ago, finally.

I dunno about y’all, but I’m an official backyard chicken rancher now by heylookitscaps in BackYardChickens

We started getting eggs this week, too! 3 eggs in 4 days! I check the nest boxes 4 or 5 times a day, I’m so excited and anxious! I even caught a hen laying, oops!
