It is the Pharoah of sex links.

I googled it..300 eggs a year! Holy Moly! Aren’t they pretty..

Ok I thought there were either red sex links or black, this golden is new to me!

Yup! They are a mix of a Rhode Island Red Roo and Rhode Island White Hen!

I just want a rooster farm. I love my girls with all my heart, but roosters scream back when I flip my shiz.

Each hen lays just one color. So you might have one that lays blue, one that lays green, one that lays "pink" (which looks brown to me!), one that lays white, etc.

The colors can shift a little bit from day to day, but not a lot. So the green eggs might be a little darker or lighter on different days. The blue eggs might be a little bit green sometimes but not others. The brown eggs might be lighter or darker.

On occasion, the brown eggers may lay white (it's as if they forgot to put the color on the outside.) When the same thing happens with a green egger, the egg comes out blue, because green eggs are blue ones with a brown coating on them.ran out of a color...

The ink cartridge had a bubble in it.

Either that or the quail themselves are a food source (and not named after grandpa). Who wants to have to make a 12 egg omelet??

Japanese quail eggs are a hot item in Asian markets.

If I cannot say it I do not have it. LOL. It was confusing as some will call them by acronyms….PBR, RIR, CLB. I am not aware of an acronym for a Orpington but maybe it does exist but never seen it. My choices are driven by whether they make pretty lawn decoration….just kidding. Health, temperament., egg size then color. BYC has loads of info and in no time you learn more then you expected.

BO for Buff Orpington

When I first got my chickens, I went into the store and guy asked me what I wanted. I swear to you I said oh just regular chickens!

Did he looked baffled? lol

 

[teachchickmi]

Welcome! This made me LAUGH OUT LOUD. I have “black ones,” “speckled ones,” and “brown ones.”
