It looks like this ...... What do ya think? Is this white? Laying on the Delaware eggs...

 

[The Sheriff]

Looks white to me! Did you hatch Kola or did I send her to you? I can't even remember anymore! I am curious what age she is because one of the birds from the eggs I got from Marty Farve started laying in the last few days. I have seen her out on dates with the roos too.

I wonder if they are the same age?

 

[kathyinmo]

I hatched Kola on 4-22-10. The other 2 girls are from you, and a little younger.

How are these hens at laying? Pretty good through the cold?

My girl hatched on May 6th so she's about three weeks younger. She a big girl though, bigger than the ones who hatched with her. She is all white with caramel brown on her chest. Michael calls her Butterscotch! He wants me to ask Sigrid how to say it in Icelandic!

I forgot to mention I went into the coop yesterday and one of my nine week olds was sitting in the nest box just like the big girls. Judge Judy was beside herself, stomping and clucking at the little thing. She held her ground and sat there! I don't know why I don't carry the camera at all times. What a funny sight it was.

Can you look online at that Icelandic translations place to see the Icelandic word for Butterscotch? Where's the picture of her? Gotta see her now!

By the way, that is 2 weeks difference in age......

I just counted.
