New Arrivals!

Look at these lovely ladies!  





I was super excited to find these Americana pullets for sale from a local source.  They are around three months old, very friendly, and so beautiful.  Since we decided nearly three years ago to keep chickens, mom has wanted a few green eggs to add a colorful zing to our array of brown eggs.  Now I finally have them!  They have been dubbed “The Princesses,” but the white one has been given her own special name.  If you can’t figure it out by looking at her, you need to watch more Disney classics!  We will have to wait several months before gathering our first green egg, until then they add quite the dainty flair to the flock.

  1. What pretty girls! And green eggs! All mine are brown, with Peep's being brown and freckled. We're considering getting fertilized Cochin eggs for Peep to hatch in the spring.
