Breaking egg records
I was hoping the 298 eggs laid by my hens in February would be a new record for us but when I checked our egg accounts, I found that in October last year, they laid 305. Winter normally sees a drop in egg production and February has 3 days less than October, but October's record still stands, at least as far as hen eggs are concerned. Duck egg production however has soared. 47 were laid, bringing total egg production in February to 345. Let's see what March will bring.
