"Louisiana "La-yers" Peeps"

[arconfederate]

I mentioned the Bonnie and Clyde Trade days up in Arcadia. I got the dates wrong. It is NEXT weekend, the 18th, 19th and 20th. They usually have a good selection of chickens.

We got something over 16" of rain in two days at my house but I'm blessed with very minor roof damage. A lot of people lost everything. Thanks for your prayers!

Can't believe it's pouring rain here in Ruston again.

I wish it was over with. Might have to put out more sand and dirt in run for some of my chickens.

Yea! I have a new layer, my ameraucana (?) But oohh, it's a lil bit green.

This is beside my light blue legbar egg. Which i wish were darker also. Looks kinda khaki doesn't it?

No doubt!
Have the chickens started building an ark yet? I think mine are contemplating it.

They are both lovely.
Is your Ameraucana from a private breeder or hatchery? I've been reading up on the breed because I am getting some and I see many times the hatchery calls them that but they are really EE. EE are nice too, but there is a difference in egg color.

Yes, they are both pretty eggs and I love the layers of them but some blue eggs look so...vibrant. The ameraucana came from a private breeder but she was sold to me as a black orpington. So, more than likely she is an EE. But still pretty egg and she is a very pretty girl too.

No ark yet but they're beginning to quack.

Nothing wrong with an EE. They are usually beautiful and friendly like you said, the colored eggs are just a bonus.

Sounds pretty serious!
