This is not a Buff Orpington as I thought! Blondie is what they call a New Ameraucana. No wonder green eggs. She is definitely the dominant chicken. She harasses the other hens. I had to move my barred rock to the other side of the coop and separate Blondie out because she is so mean spirited. Luckily Big Boy has her minding her manners!
Blondie or ZhaZha lays green eggs. So although they have 5 laying boxes they seem to fight over this one box and kick each others' eggs out. Anybody have a cure for that? I can't keep making separate coops for each PMSing hen! Great looking egg, huh? So now you know what he meant when he said Green Eggs and Ham. The eggshell color, silly!
Big Boy and his two ladies. He has no access to the other two hens, which gives them a rest.
ZhaZha I thought was a Delaware at first. She's a cutie. She is due for some new feathers soon and has possibly been pecked on by mean old Blondie. I hope molting is coming soon. I just discovered she might be a white Araucana. Rare. Exciting. Olive green eggs~

We suspend our feeders to keep mice out and pine shavings out. We use a large planter box to hold several gallons of fresh water, which comes in handy especially during the hot summer days we have had.
This lively group was at Artpeeps meeting and barbecue in 2008. We were founded in 2005. As of 2013 we are still going strong!
Note our Artpeeps card in front of the Peeps candy.
