    That makes sense, thank you! At least I can add a few more colors to my OE list, lol

    Totally off subject, but did you see the above pics of the 2 chicks hatched from my WTB and marans roo? I'm curious what your take is, I assumed she was dominant white because the chicks hatched from her and my black English orp roo were paint. This is one of them from a couple years ago.

    Must be a brahma thing, Maribel is a light brahma, lol. She's over 5yrs old now, and doesn't lay much, but that old gal can do whatever she wants!

    Thank you! It varies, this is about the normal time for my ladies to start. So far it's only Maribel, I'm sure more will join in come August. Last year Betty started molting in December I think, it was cold (for us anyway, lol) and she was so naked 😆

    Overdue update: Maribel is molting, slow as usual, so there are white feathers everywhere 🙄 Sansa has 5 more days until her hatch, she's been quite committed. Cersei had to be locked up AGAIN for breaking her parole 😂 but is out and laying now. The 4 littles from the last hatch for someone else...

    Chickens are amazing at regulating themselves. I remember 3 yrs back, the 1 and only time my OG OE Prue went broody, it was a brutal summer (that's when we were hitting 117 with the humidity) I was so worried about her, but she hatched 6 lovely chicks out of 8 eggs. Sansa has 5 more days to go...

    One of my OE's, Onyx, loves to dust bath in the poop boards after they've been cleaned🤦‍♀️

    Sansa is officially the meanest broody I've ever had, this happened in literally 15 seconds while I was checking for eggs that didn't belong, smdh. On a happy note, I've got a 3 day weekend and today I'm making cranberry grape juice with the steamer hubs got me for Christmas 😊

    Why aren’t Whiting True Blues more popular?

    I think you need to read the full description of the breed and have a little more understanding of genetics. WTB's carry 2 copies of the blue egg gene, 💯, not 25🤔. They may not breed true for color, but they breed true for blue eggs, you can't say that about any EE crosses, unless tested.

    Quick update: Sansa has been clucking and acting broody for weeks but doesn't sit in the nest box besides to lay, so I've left her be. Thursday she stayed in the nest box all day and laid an egg, but slept on the roost, Friday she did the same, but slept in the nest box (I collected both eggs)...

    Must be something around our area this year🤷‍♀️ Last year I was overrun with cucumbers, this year they just stopped growing. I'm grateful I've got some folks to trade with. My flock loves cucumbers, squash, and tomatoes. All the seeds I took out of the cucumbers for the relish I put in the...
