I got more egg shells in today!  Thank you, @DnDFarm
.

I have about 60 right now...I think we'll pass 100 before it's all over.  There is a lot of variation in egg shell colors!  lol

So is there going to be a new color chart with the 100 different colors...I want to place my order for one

No, 100 colors won't fit on even the new concept card we have planned...we'll have to "cull" some of the colors. However, we are also planning a poster size "color card" that will include all, or most depending on how many we end up with, of the colors collected. You can hang that one on your wall!

On the new concept card, we will eliminate the purples first, then the real green "greens", and focus more on the various intensities of blue.

Well, that is the plan.

I'm hoping we can keep the price reasonable, so it is within reach for everyone that wants one. I have to wait to see how many colors we collect, then determine how big the poster needs to be, then put it out for bids.

Can you all help me try and sex my little chicks. They are 7 weeks. Is the other one a wheaten or a splash? Help appreciated.

First two are pullets. The last is a splash cockerel, with lots of 'leakage'.

I had four of my 'black ameraucanas' hatch today I say that because all the possible parents should be one hundred percent black but I got what look to be two blues

So how will that work? I don't think I have enough money if that goes out for bids! lol
