Our newest flock!

Look at our precious peeps! I am so excited - I have finally gotten the Cukoo Marans breed, which is a French breed that will lay chocolate colored eggs! I can hardly wait! I also got some more Americanas, they lay both green and blue eggs, Rhode Island reds and a couple of cochins - they will have feathered feet! We got 20, but have lost 1 last night. They are fragile little things those first few days. If it is warm enough tomorrow, I will let them run around in the grass - they simply will love that!

Ready made easter eggs! That sounds really cool. Now, if you can get them to lay chocolate COVERED eggs, you'll be in business!!
