    Our very 1st Egg!

    I'm definitely no expert, but I believe I found the answer yesterday! I looked at the hatchery where our TSC gets their chicks from and found out they have Starlight Green Eggers which are a mix of a Prairie Bluebell Egger and a brown egg layer! They have single combs and after looking at a lot...

    Our very 1st Egg!

    Yes!! They were from the same bin (the bin was supposed to be Rhode island red and barred rock pullets) so I'm assuming she was just an accidental mix-up or an accidental mixed breed?? (can that even happen at hatcheries??) And I noticed her big white earlobes and looked around and saw it was...

    Our very 1st Egg!

    That's really good to know!!! These are our first chickens so it's as new of an experience to us as it is to them! We went ahead and removed the balls out of the run in any case, so hopefully she'll catch on! It's so funny because originally I wanted Easter Egger's or some sort of colorful...

    Our very 1st Egg!

    When TSC was having their Chick Days, we purchases what we thought were 2 RIR's and 2 barred rocks (all supposed to be pullets). We have been excitedly awaiting our first egg (they turned 18 weeks yesterday) and it was one of our 'Rhode islands' except she laid a blue/green egg so I guess she's...
