My chickens laid their first egg today!!! I am pretty eggcited about it! I decided to check the nest box today just incase...since they are due to start laying next month. Imagine my suprise to find this perfect white egg! The egg on the left is a large egg from the store and the one on the right is from my backyard!!!

Beware of the Hornworms!!
I picked one off of a tomato at moms house today. Then I went home and checked my plants and I found 5 on one plant!! It was like a hornworm party on there. Now I know why i haven't got one tomato off that plant. I think they are the grossest things around. They are pretty giant too, so I don't know why they are so hard to see. I just wanted to warn everybody. If you are new to gardening: look for tomato plants that have leaves missing, then look for a big green creepy caterpillar looking thing. But beware they have a stinger thing on them so watch where you put your hands. I wish i would have taken a picture but I fed mine to the chickens. If I see another I will get a pic.

Hello everyone,
A few people have asked me how to leave a comment on here. I had it set up wrong where only people with a blogger account could leave comments but, I fixed it. Now you can just click on comment and leave a comment. Then at the bottom it will say comment as: , scroll down and pick name/url or anonomous. If you pick name/url it will come up with a box type in your name and just leave the url part blank. The rest is pretty easy. Leave me a comment if this was helpful :).
