Martha Stewart would be proud of your handiwork.

somehow I can't see martha doing stuff to not candle eggs lol... might make lil frilly chicken clothes for the eggs, plus I got lucky my christmas tree is somewhere in all the boxes of my mothers belongings I have to go thru in the shed still it would be major work to yank everything out to find two boxes a friend was getting rid of a christmas tree that the lights had gone bad one I spent alot of the day between varnishing unwinding lights off the free I got it done and repurposed the christmas tree will donate it to the domestic violance group we have locally later

So it was your daughter who made the great comment.  Not surprised by that.  What a great comment she made!  Yes, our children can rise to the occasion!  
Thanks for the clarification.
Neal, the Zooman

Yes. She was quite amused with her little sign. But she was surprised at how much I loved it

Sweet little baby love........

Macaroni and Rory, a flat and a frizzle. I wish I could upload the video of the one laying on its back in our hand, just chilling. So funny.

I wish my eggs moved as fast as this forum!

LOL that would definitely be nice!

That's so cool. I am thinking of trying to make some crested Olive eggers. 

I think that would be great. What's the plan to get the crests on them? Just curious as to how you'll get there.

I'm still WAY behind here, but I was thinking that using the Crested Cream Legbars as your blue egg layer to cross with a brown could give you a crest on your OEs. I like using pea combed blue egg layers as that helps determine before maturity which birds got the blue egg laying gene (not 100%, but helpful).
