That is a pretty egg.   What color Marans laid that?

Black Copper Maran.

Sometimes they will get darker.
 
Speckled is really nice though!

I love the speckles! I hope it stays that way. I have two more girls from another line that are weeks from laying! Can hardly wait to see their eggs...

I have a Red Star who lays a fairly dark terracota colored egg. They are sometimes speckled...almost too pretty to eat. Is this egg from hen who you got from a breeder or a hatchery?

Okay, I said no chicks for awhile, I was mistaken.

Look what just hatched!

And once again for size perspective, these chicks were close to a week old already.

Sounds beautiful! any pictures?
I got them from a breeder.

Here's almost all of the ones she's given us so far. I think I cooked 2 of them though.

Those are beautiful! I have three Welsummer pullets who have just begun laying and two of them lay eggs about that color. I love these girls. They are friendly and lay beautiful eggs!

How cute!!! Will you have to feed this one with a toothpick like you did the others? Talk about a labor of love!
