My rooster wandered off to my neighbor's barn & young hen. We'd had a coon attack Two weeks ago Sunday morning. One hen died, and my BA hen has shunned roo's attention since. My neighbor asked us to come & get our roo, since he's scared of roosters. " And take thae hen with him. I don't want any chickens in my barn." The hen must be a bantam Aracana, she's white with red - blushed head, chest & wings. She's a noisy layer! lays blue eggs, medium size. The farmer's wife said her husband was afraid of the blue colored eggs, wouldn't even taste one. He fed those eggs to his dogs. YAY! I got a free hen. just for walking next door to help my neighbor from a "big scary rooster".LOL! My rooster is a big old scardy-cat!
the scared of blue eggs part is the best! score one for you!!! CONGRATS! that's awesome!!!!!!!! good things must come to good people!!
Nice deal! Your new hen sounds cute (I'd love to see a picture of her!), and gotta love those blue eggs! Funny how people get about the color of eggs...
