This is what happens when your small flock of exotic hens all come into lay at the same time.

This is what happens when your small flock of exotic hens all come into lay at the same time. I guess they must think it's spring anyway...

@RickGaehl what beautiful colours though! What lays the green/blue eggs?

[rickgaehl@mstdn.social]

@Ruth_Mottram Those are from the legbar hens .

[ruth_mottram@fediscience.org]

@RickGaehl they're beautiful. And I just looked up the hens, they're beautiful too!

[rickgaehl@mstdn.social]

@Ruth_Mottram The dark brown eggs are from our marans, and they are fine birds too. Also a bit more intelligent than your average chickens.

@RickGaehl

My chickens tell me that it is spring by stopping laying eggs and starting to brood.

[rickgaehl@mstdn.social]

@piiabartos These are very young birds - I don't think they've quite got the hang of things yet.

@RickGaehl wow. What a beautiful display of varied eggs. Makes a guy want to keep a few chooks.
