After a few days off, I am back:
Today, I decided to take out some black berry plants. They have taken over a corner of the yard that 2 years ago had been cleaned out. Now, there are plants that are thicker than one inch. So, I got the thick gloves, the cutters, and the chain saw. I had taken out an area of about4-5 square meters and what did I see? EGGS!!!! Finally, I have found where the others have been laying their eggs. There must have been at least 50 of them. (I plan on counting them as I break off the tops to use the shells for seed starts.)
Now, our friends and family will really love us!! We will start delivering eggs to them. Having 6 chickens, i am guessing that we will be getting about 10-12 eggs every other day. I am certain my cholesterol will not be able to hadnle that. So, Lily will be selling any surplus and family will get some too. I am SO happy to finally have found them. Now, if someone wants to earn a few dozen eggs, I have some black berry plants that need to be taken out...Any takers? Please?
Blackberry plants just keep coming back over and over, Chris. It's a waste of your time. :) Just make jelly out of the berries. Great job on the eggs. We love eggs here!
