Love how intense the blue is. Membrane removed from inside of the Malay hen's egg.

It's darker in person.

When you first started this, you mentioned seeing both long tail and fantail traits in the kids.
Are you still getting fantails popping up?

I have to put my breeding projects on pause for awhile.
Shrimp tail was something I always hatched(Parents have the trait) at the beginning. Long Tail was a new one.

First Malay egg collected this spring. Collected yesterday.

Got Malay egg number two today. From one of my 10 month old pullets.

Just won't be able to hatch any until we get our own place. Gonna check out an abandoned Ranch house that's nearby. If it has enough land, & a barn, or sheds so I'll have spots to set up the birds new coops.
