Icelandic Chickens

When I was a kid, we had a "pit" we dug to store potatoes, carrots, squash and pumpkins in... the floor was dirt but the sides were cement and dad said we could always use it as a "bomb shelter" if we had to. It's opening was inside a little shed. It kept everything nice an cool.

Wow, they are so uniform looking!!  Are they from the same rooster and hen mating?

yes, they are. I only have the three hens and one roo. If you check out post number 17869 you will see my birds. I have one in the hatcher now that I had figured would not not hatch but guess what, it's hatching.

Just got through watching, "Vikings"... didn't see any chickens.... Perhaps in the future?

I think I may try to put my Icelandic eggs under my broody EE. I stuck one under her earlier to see if she'd take it, then noticed the thing was cracked

Down to six eggs, I guess.

Yes, there were! When Ragnor and his son are entering the village to meet the Lord, there was a cage on the right side of the screen with what look to be a columbian colored bird. I don't have a dvr so couldn't pause and look closely at the comb, but maybe someone who does will comment.
