How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

We had a light freeze last night, so today I harvested all of the green peppers still growing in my garden.  I was telling my daughter that I brought in 21 green peppers! And already had a large bowl of them on the counter.  She said I should try to sell them to my "Chicken Friends" and tell them that they are special  chicken eggs!  LOL!
I love green peppers, my favorite, I'll take 4. GC

I've seen that idea too, but so far haven't constructed anything that sturdy or big. I tried a raised screen that had been inside an aquarium,but without support on all 4 sides it isn't doing anything. Plus, it's only as big as the bottom of a 10 gallon aquarium.
I am hoping to construct mine this week or next, Maybe do some fall type crops in it and then do a hoop house over the top. I will be doing the "chicken salad" type mix. We don't get a lot of freezing weather here, so I just have to keep it from washing away in the rain. Hopefully by spring I will have a dozen or so of the boxes made for our main coop.
 
We have frost every night now.

But it was really nice yesterday.

8 eggs today
 
2 today. Not bad considering I've been eggless for 4 months while my older birds molted and my younger ones grew. I'm thinking I might have a 3rd laying. Today's second egg was smaller than the last few.
