Our 8 1/2- year-old hen laid an egg today. I'm so proud of her! She's pretty old to still be laying, even occasionally.
Weaving, Spinning, Knitting, Sheep, Chickens
About Me
- Diane
- Wilhoit, AZ, United States
- I'm a weaver, spinner, and knitter who raises Cotswold sheep in the central Arizona highlands. I have an MA in medieval history and am interested in dye plants, historical cooking, organic gardening, sustainable agriculture, and the preservation of rare breeds.
