My 2 week old LAVENDER Australorps.

Lavender Aussies? Here I was excited about the blues!

Was that a response to my question? @hennible I was a little confused cuz ppl were saying when u see the air sac later on that it's the lighter area of the egg, but in the beginning, it's dark?

 

[houdiniduck]

ok never had a duck egg either................. so whats the differnce when eating to a chicken?

I didn't notice a difference but my mom said they are a richer more complex flavor.
