Let's start with Caliope, who I'm assuming is a EE:

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!

Then comes (The Black) Pearl one of our Black Australorps:  Sorry, the next two pics aren't the best, and are the only ones we got.
