    Trying to identify hens we bought.

    It does look like you have a diamond duchess. Looks like it's getting a crest. I have two and they both have a crest.

    I sure wish I were going to GA again. I'd have to come get one of those guys. It'd sure be funny to take him on the plane 😉

    Last Friday, my blue Plymouth rock, Blueberry, laid her first egg. It was a tiny double yolk egg. Of the three that she laid this week, all have been double yolk eggs. Last night she passed a rubber egg right in front of me. I hope this doesn't mean that she's going to have reproductive issues...

    The Omega Rocks: The Last & Ultimate Barred Plymouth Rock Flock

    I'd have no chance in your barn either. :eek::barnie:th I'm terribly terrified of snakes. Probably because of having grown up in GA and my own mom was afraid of them too. However, here in MI, I don't have to worry about poisonous snakes except for one. The Michigan rattlesnake. It's not seen...

    When I was a little girl growing up in the south, we used to catch those and tie a string to one of their legs and let them fly around. Thus the expression "like a June bug on a string". My mystery chick at approximately 15 weeks old gave me my first egg today. I wasn't expecting it this soon...

    I do a lot of tomatoes also. More than we need. Last year I tried canning spaghetti sauce for the first time and it's really yummy.

    Did I forget to mention that it's just hubby and myself? I try to share and tell my kids to help themselves but they rarely take any. I have enough to last me another year. I had a lot of help last summer since my sister was spending the summer with me.

    My big boy is named Sulley also. Just spelled a bit different. It's from the Monsters Inc movie. He was so naughty that we got him a friend. We thought he was bored. It was love at first sight. Her name is Boo,

    Kinda makes me want to start canning. But I swore I was going to take a year off after all the canning I did last year... approximately 800 jars 🫣 Plus the stuff that I put up in the freezer. I usually make spiced blueberry peach jam every year. My hubby's favorite.
