    Here's a pic of Lucy (it loaded correctly on my phone but hopefully you can see it) They make really good pets if they are handled correctly.

    Well thank you! Ours haven't started laying yet but I'm looking forward to the nice variety in the eggs. Brahmas and Australorps are definitely sweet hearts!
