EGGcited!

So we got to eat our first 2 DragonFly Farms eggs yesterday.  Here they are next to a store bought Grade AA Large egg.  You will first notice the shell color...not white!  You can usually tell the color of egg the chicken will lay by the color of their ear tufts.

In this bowl is a store bought egg on the left and one of ours on the right.  Notice the rich orange yolk color...that is how an egg should look!

You will notice that our egg on the bottom is smaller than the AA Large but it is packed with flavor and nutrition :D

a VERY Happy 4th of July!!!!

It has been quite a day here at DragonFly Farms!  Here is our watermelon patch before I harvested that big one in the middle.

While I was taking this picture of myself I was leaning on the chicken coop I saw a little surprise in there!

AN EGG!!!!!  our first one!  The watermelon is 4lbs 15oz and the egg is 1.4oz :)

We will be eating the watermelon later at my parents' and doing a blind taste test to see how it measures up to her store bought one.  I know mine will win.  Update to come later.  Meanwhile for a job well done i gave this big ol' mater to the girls :D
