Does anyone need eggs? I am going to flitting around this week in various places (Wichita and places between Wichita anc hutch, hutch, stirling, possibility to get them to Lawrence assuming Amy's willing to be the assistant egg fairy) As feed prices rise, so do egg prices. So, This summer they are 4.00 (plus 50c if I deliver). Another 50c if I have to keep them cool while you aren't home. About what you'd pay for organic at Dillons. But mine are better. They will be washed, so they'll need to go in the fridge.

Hit me up (here or in DMs) if you want the egg fairy to come this week.
