And just like that we finally have some eggs from the Black & Blue Copper Marans pen!
These are the very first eggs these young girls have laid and my amazing sister has done a great job of photographing them indoors with some natural light while I am away in Europe.
Very happy so far with the egg colour, now to improve on the line I have by getting another line in, hatching out the best males and females from those and seeing what we can improve for the next generation. How fun 🤗
For contrast there is a Welsummer egg possibly from Autumn or maybe the other Welsummer I have which is also a first egg from that pen as well 🤩
Hoping I get another egg from the other Welsummer girl who isn't laying that will be a bit more speckly but I'm liking what they have laid so far.
Now for the Cream Legbars to chime in and pop out some nice blues 💙
I will be back in Melbourne by next Saturday, a bit jet lagged to say the least but I am excited to get stuck back into all my chicken tenders ways, to pop the Easter Egger team back in with Smokeshow now that they have finished molting and start testing fertility again to hatch out some more beautiful babies🐥🙌😊
