Golden Egg

Update from the Garlick Press Ranch

Cost of seven adorable baby chicks last April...$25


Number of hours to complete the bright red coop...Elevendy Billion


Opening the side door


to find the girls had laid their first egg...priceless!


From all the excitement around our house, you would think it was a golden egg.

 Just ask the chickens biggest fan Libby!

Oh it's priceless alright!

FYI...We are almost positive Red laid the first egg.
More FYI...You should have seen her strut her stuff and cackle after laying that egg.
Still More FYI...The egg weighed almost exactly the same amount as Red did when we brought her home just a few months ago.

LOVE...LOVE...our chickens!

Omelettes anyone?

  2. How exciting to have your very first egg at the Garlick Urban Farm. Almost as good as a golden egg. Who was the lucky recipient of that first egg.
