It snowed last night and the chicken coop was a muddy mess, but the gals seemed chipper when I went out this morning in spite of the muck.
Last year we raised several batches of chicks to replace our laying hens that were getting old. I chose to raise several different breeds of birds that would lay a variety of colored eggs.
I love colored eggs!

Some of the hens were camera shy, so not all the hens are shown. I wrote down what breeds I had bought but I can't find the list, so I don't dare label all the birds.
This gal thinks she needs to set and gets cantankerous when you take her eggs.
