here is an update pic of my grandchicks, the first hatchlings from my pullet eggs laid by my hens hatched from eggs bought on ebay in March of this year. Talk about a quick turnaround! WOW! some of them are already clucking instead of peeping!

My eggs themselves seem to be getting much darker each day, and the speckling is less noticeable, it is still there but the darker the shell, the lighter and more blended the speckles! And these are really pretty dark eggs, I am pleased. They're a steady four on the scale now, wavering towards five, we may get there!
We are going to be painting a couple living room walls, DH wanted to know what color I was going to use....I told him I wanted at least a four on the Marans color scale....he actually thought that was cool! Told me to pick my favorite shell and take it to the paint store and have them computer match it!
And I'm gonna do it. He stopped me at the spotted one though

just paint it the color you want and put the speckles on afterwards. If he complains, tell him it's fly specks!
