The time finally came when our girls stopped giving us eggs! :( We actually started buying eggs for the first time in about 9 months or so...what a bummer! After some debate, I convinced Jeff that these girls are pets to Baby Girl and I, and as much as he would like to, I don't think he has the heart to "discard" of them and eat them...as true farmers would do. So, he stopped in to the feed store and thankfully the owner (who still has our rooster) agreed to take our girls and let them roam around his shop with many, many other breeds of chickens there!
Jeff was nervous about explaining this to Baby Girl, so I just told her that they needed a new home and we would get new babies in the spring. She was completely fine with that and actually enjoyed the comedy of watching Jeff and Jadyn (my niece) round up the girls. They certainly didn't go w/o a fight!
