Sandy, thanks for sharing that. That chick in that thread looks like a true Chocolate doesn't it. I haven't heard anything yet but sometimes it takes a little while.

hmmmm... I'm wondering if the eggs I got came out of the pen with that girl in it! Couldn't happen in a nicer flock!

jmhappycowboy was asking the same question about his Orp also, in this thread. Julie, did he get his Orps from you?
