My son wanted to have a hen who laid green/blue eggs so I caved in at the local farm store and bought him two. It was a pleasant suprise as his two birds are stunningly beautiful and sweet as can be. We enjoy them so much we went and bought some more later. They have done well with the rest of our flock. As sweet as they are they really shy away from people, but don't have an agressive bone in their body. We are so thankful our son chose them.
