I keep forgetting to share this exciting update! One of my BCM pullets surprised me with "purple" eggs 😍

The eggs in the middle are the current color I have for my Marans. I'm working on creating a darker line, and this pullets' heavy blooms will be a fantastic addition to both my BCM and Olive Egger projects 🤗
