Easter has a way of sneaking up on us, and before you know it, the stores are stocked with cartons of plain white eggs ready for the dye kit But if you keep a backyard flock, you already have something far more exciting waiting in the nest box Learning how to dye fresh eggs from your own hens turns a simple holiday craft into a celebration of everything your flock produces Fresh eggs come in a rainbow of natural shades, and that head start gives you colors a store-bought carton simply cannot match
Easter Fun
With Easter fast approaching, many of us backyard chicken owners are ready with baskets full of fresh eggs!
Hens really start laying on overdrive when the weather warms up and the sun decides to hang around later each evening Those eggs we waited for all winter, may now be arriving in droves! Easter is the perfect time to use up lots of those delicious eggs!
No Easter would be complete without dying Easter eggs, and when you have your own eggs fresh from your hens, it makes it all the more enjoyable
