Chickens
I'll start with the newest news first...
We bought three new hens Friday from "Poultry in Motion" out of Utopia. Chicken Bea, a Rhode Island Red; Stu, a Black Sex-Link; and Daisy May, an Araucana. All three girls are settling in nicely with Sweetie Pie (the rooster - he's a Barred Rock) and Harriet (she is some type of Bantee - not sure which). Each of the girls laid an egg today! Harriet's eggs are little brown eggs about the size of a filled, chocolate Cadbury Easter egg. Chicken Bea and Stu lay brown eggs about the size of a regular large egg. Daisy May lays light pink eggs! Very pretty!
All the new hens seem very sweet and Erin spent a lot of time IN the coop with them today. (I will post a picture of that too soon!)
Here is Sweetie Pie:
