Pro tip: starting my morning with the girls actually saves my whole day

I used to rush out to them after coffee, but now checking for eggs and water first thing lets me spot any little problem before it gets big.

That idea of spotting little problems before they get big is so key. What was one of those small things you caught that would have turned into a huge hassle? (Like, a cracked egg in the nest box that could attract pests, maybe.) I'm curious how this morning check changes your mindset for the whole day, honestly. It seems like it turns a chore into a preventative measure. Do you do anything else differently now because you start with them?

That bit about spotting little problems is the real takeaway. I've found that doing a quick scan of anything, not just the chicken coop, stops small stuff from blowing up later. It's a habit that works for the garden or even my car, like @the_elizabeth was getting at.
