Wow colors too good to eat tho the deep chocolate ones do temp me. I would expect candy to come out of them and would be sadly disappointed. I like eggs but I love chocolate candy or ice cream even more

Ron are those your eggs? I mean, not yours, personally, but your flock?

Making me jealous over here.

They used to be!

When I had to downsize, I kept the Pita Pintas because they were younger.
