I've looked it up. Looks like ceacal? I guess normal? But I've never seen it before. New mom panic moment. They are all healthy.

So happy for your recovery. You have a plethora of knowledge with many years of crops and animals so it will be nice for the young man to learn from someone with experience.

Will they walk on the snow? I was thinking of letting my girls out to explore but didn't want them to get cold feet 🤣.

I love the color of those eggs!!

I'd like to know the answer to this also. Cold spell in upstate NY.

Agreed. Lots of eggs and a variety of colors!

I had a barred rock. She was the sweetest girl. If you sat on the ground she would jump up on our shoulders. Good luck in deciding. Get a variety. I have the most beautiful eggs.
