Two of our lovely chickens are laying eggs, Ninja and Cheerio. They are almost as excited about it as we are. They strut around the yard honking excitedly. Ninja layed the biggest brown egg I've ever seen, a double yolker! It was brown with little darker brown speckles. Cheerio turns out to be a blue egger, or a blue/green egger. Her eggs are more demure, and just a lovely shade of blue/green. Hard to see in the picture, we'll work on getting some better shots of these lovely eggs. Coleman has eaten three out of the five eggs we have found so far. They have a rich orange yoke and delicious flavor. Small issue; they are hard to find. Since they free range, they lay their eggs in the yard and we have a big yard with grasses as high as me. There may even be more eggs out there we don't know about. I may have to narrow their range a little.
