    Hey H&R...yes we're getting white eggs! Both Pistol and Sugar are laying regularly but Dottie hasn't started yet (she's the black one). I do run a big flourescent T5 fixture from 4AM-4PM and our egg production has been pretty consistent, usually 10-12 eggs daily. I love the Andalusians, they...
