I'm really curious to see what happens in the last 5 mins of this one.  The last batch sold for $460.  What exactly do these hens lay?

The last time I really paid attention to this kind of thing, it was the Marans that were reeling in the big bucks.  Now you can't swing a stick without whacking Marans eggs for sale.  Makes you wonder what the gold rush does to the quality of the breed.

 

I wonder how common these Orps are going to be in 5 years...

Oooh...here's the next one!  The same person who won the last auction is the high bidder here.
