Hello, Welcome to my chicken page!
I live in southern New Mexico and just got my flock this summer. I currently have 7 Rhode Island Red hens, 2 Buff Orpington hens, 2 Barred Rock hens, 3 Easter Eggers, 2 Australorp hens, a Cuckoo Marans hen and a Rhode Island Red rooster. Whew, 18 chickens to start with! We also have a horse, a mule and 1 dog. Chickens are sure a lot more fun than I expected!!!
Huge double-yolked egg from one of my Australorp hens.
I put it next to a normal sized egg for reference.
One of my Barred Rocks.
My first egg! This came from one of my Australorps.

A rainbow of pretty eggs. The dark brown ones are from my Cuckoo Marans hen, I think.
