GIANT Black Star Egg

[ChickyNicky05]

You have such beautiful brown eggs! What type chickens do you have?

I have four Plymouth Rocks-Barred colored, I occasionally get a double yolker and at first two shelless eggs. But other than that they are a prefect egg, ranging from a cream color to a mid/dark tan with dark specks. The yolks are a beautiful mid/dark orange color, but if I let them sit too long they do get a little watery which I just fed to the dogs. or to the pigs or back to the chickens!

Thank you! These eggs are from our black sex-link girls, each one lays a different shade of brown. Our Khaleesi lays the darker brown, Lady lays a light brown, and Raven lays ones that are somewhere in the middle, and hers usually look like they have a powdery coating on them. I am excited for our little Rhode Island Reds to start laying, I love seeing the shade variations! Eventually when we get more land we are going to look into getting some easter eggers!

Sex-Links are more apt to lay double yolk eggs. I wouldn't worry

Thank you!
