Wish I had a recent pic, but mine are similar to new2chooks.

Surprised the daylights out of me, coming from hatchery birds.

I hatched them from Nancy. (bargain)

I'll be getting more wellie girls for my rooster, Moose, as soon as I get my new coop done.

I THINK I got my first Welsummer egg today and it looked like yours rdport . . .. . .

I have a marans too. I was expecting the welsummers to be closer to the color of my marans. Instead, their egg was closer to the color of my wyandotte.

MY QUESTION - - - WILL THEY GET DARKER or is this all I am going to get out of them ? ? ? ?


(I will post pictures in a few days. . . . I have two welsummers - - - so I want to wait for the other to start laying. HOPEFULLY it will be any day )
