    White Plymouth Rocks?

    These look decent sized for 21-day old chicks. I hope they continue to track the size so we can determine how this works out. BTW: probably lost my eggs last night. Tornado caused lengthy power outage.

    Wow.

Still upset that a BYC member is selling eggs that are collected over a seven day period making...
