We just kind of we're a chicken collector.
Chicken math is a real thing.
We started out thinking like, Oh, let's just get like maybe four or five chickens.
You know how many eggs can eat in a day?
Turned into.
But what if we lose a few?
So let's get some more.
And so we started with, I think like 12.
Now we're up to 26 and we just keep discovering all these different kinds of breeds of chickens.
So this one's a nugget.
This is the first chicken that we had that would tolerate me holding her.
So she's just my favorite.
Because of that, we've got a lot of different kinds of chickens.
So those little black and white ones over there, they crack me up, they're called Appenzeller Spitzhauben they're the nation...
The national chicken in Switzerland.
Others are really great at egg laying like they're just very consistent.
And then we have a few that they lay eggs, but they're tend to be maybe smaller eggs or not as often some will.
250, 260 eggs a year.
They're just really chill.
