And, blackfootfarm, I actually live in the Santa Cruz mountains. We have mostly redwoods, medrone, oak, and fir trees. No laurels in our area. (I've seen laurels close to our area though.)

we think of madrone and laurels as the same thing. Sorry if I confused you! I do love your chickies by the way!

I got Beth from Ideal hatchery as a "black tail buff Dutch bantam". However, I also got a rooster of the same breed, and everyone said elsewhere in the forum that he wasn't a purebred Dutch but a mix of, say, Japanese and OEGB. So I can't quite be sure that Beth is a purebred Dutch bantam.

Am I right in thinking Louise lays brown eggs

Quite right. She's an Australorp, so she lays brown eggs.
