All about the easter chicken. . .

Ugh, how civilization has confused our children. The candy makers are trying to convince our young ones that the cadbury bunny lays the Easter eggs. What the heck. . . .rabbits are mammals!!! Mammals don't lay eggs, that is part of what makes them mammals.
But we can help correct that. It's just before easter and our Americana's are laying colored eggs galore. Woohoo! No need to dye them, the birds do it for us. The real treat was while cleaning the turkey coop i was treated to a sweet little discovery - an egg! Our one turkey who avoided the chopping block because she was way too small decided to try her hand at mothering. There wont be any chicks by her (no husband) but it was a pleasant Easter treat and it reminded me of the renewal of life. We get to celebrate that again on Sunday, and really we should every day!
