Chicken underwear coming soon


The new Apifera hens will be introduced this week. But it must be done properly, formerly, and I must first get caught up on some projects today.

My desire to introduce you to them was tripled yesterday when I found the first blue egg...sweet and tiny, a pastel robin blue. Who was responsible? I have some tipsters helping me discover the new egg layer...but new hens are tight lipped about their first eggs. Much like getting your first period, I'm sure these girls are somewhat perplexed, somewhat horrified that shelled objects are popping out. You just don't run around the barnyard screaming about your new puberty.

So stay tuned...I think you will appreciate their individual characters.
