Hmmm... I could indeed do that. I could just feed those eggs to the dogs. They're pretty darn stinky already. Both are masters of the Silent but Deadly attack. Maybe the opposing stinks would cancel each other out. (These are the same dogs that got into a bottle of fish emulsion fertilizer...

Ackkk, Conroy! Don't feed the obsession!!!

Ahhhh, there is a difference in sheen on these. I'll start paying attention. I'll also try to see what's under FiFi. Won't that be interesting? 10 eggs is awesome! I was pretty pumped to get 5...

See the deal is that when they mess with the egg color it ignites that faint glimmer of hope that somebody new has decided to lay. Theoretically with two pale pinkish brown eggs and one darker brown egg I could have both of the buffs laying. I saw the GLW go in and hunker in her nest this...

So far ALL my banties lay exactly identical eggs. Which would be why I have no idea really what is about to hatch out this Saturday. I THINK it's all pure mille fleurs, but there is a chance that I got a mille fleur x blue silkie mix in there. It sure would be easier if they came out labeled...

Yeah, I kind of like the speckles. They were helping me figure out who was laying what. Then I discovered that sometimes a hen's eggs would have speckles and sometimes it wouldn't. And it seems that sometimes the speckles change from dark to white and vice versa. Sigh...

I don't think my kitchen is big enough for that. I'd be blowing out every egg coming in the door! Plus, since I've been feeding raw eggs to the dogs (including the shells) I'm not sure that the eggs would last very long. The wonder mutts would destroy the kitchen art!

Ahhhh, you laugh. We are on Christmas break until January. I may just do that. The problem is that I have more or less done that. I've been spying on them for a month and then logging the details into a spreadsheet. I have down who laid what, where it was laid and what color it was. The...

Yes, they are hateful little brats! First they refuse to lay and then when they do lay they mix up the colors and nest boxes so I don't know who laid what! This is going to get tricky if and when I decide to start hatching things out. (This set under Fifi the silkie is my test run to see how...

Yeah, the green egg is the only one where I can definitely identify the layer. It's the others I can't figure out. I assumed the buff would lay a light pinkish brown egg. The darker should be the wyandottes. But I got two lights and a dark today and I only have one buff laying. They do...

Okay... I have four hens laying in the big girl coop. One is an EE, so I figure the green egg has to be hers. The other three are a buff orp, a SLW and a GLW. I assumed that the wyandottes would lay the same color egg and the buff egg would look different. I also assumed that the wyandotte...
