The Incredible Edible Egg

The snow is finally gone and the chickens can get out and peck at all the fresh new greenery.  Its very relaxing to watch them meander around looking for tidbits.  As one friend said, "Its the same kind of relaxing as watching fish in a fish tank."  Their eggs are always good, but the fresh additions to their diet make the eggs they lay taste and look phenomenal. 

Here is an egg quality chart from the "Incredible, Edible Egg" website.
