This one was also supposed to lay blue (or green) eggs.

Full size Brahmas are slower growing/maturing, so usually are later than others (including Buff Orps I've had in the past) regarding point of lay. Not sure about the bantams, though

@RebeccaBoyd full sized brahmas are usually 6-8 months before 1st egg.

Mcmurrayhatchery.com says that their bantam brahmas (assortment) typically lay at about 19 weeks. Hoovers I can't get to pull up and the other big ones don't say.

Picked up 2 bags of feed, so full dark before I got home.

2fer Tuesday

Aster starting down Éowyn.

Shortly after this photo was taken I shot this video.

It seems Aster learned about the cat from her mum. It sure looked like she made the cat leave by just staring at her. Don't you think?
