The crew
Our chickens are free range chickens, meaning we do not keep them in their coop, the coop door remains open all day so the chicken can run around then garden, dig, chase flies, hunt worms, find shady hiding spots, run, and be happy. We chose to fence in the garden rather then fence in the chickens!
Honey is a 2 year old Buff Orpington. She lays large brownish pink eggs, goes broody on a regular basis (and is our only hen who goes broody) and loves to eat those big juicy horned tomato worms!
Dahlia is a 1 year old Silver Laced Wyandotte. She lays large brown eggs and is definitely a rebel of the pack and is a great spider hunter!
Rosie is a 1 year old Easter Egger. She lays medium blue green eggs and is a snug bug! She loves to be held and cuddled by her mama =) And I love holding her!
Lucy is a 2 year old Easter Egger. She lays large blue eggs, she's the first to go to bed, the first to wake up, and the first to start squawking loudly early in the morning for her scratch.
Batman is a 2 year old Golden Laced Wyandotte. She lays large brown eggs and is the alpha female of the bunch... yes she can be a bitch!
Betty is a 2 year old Buff Orpington. She lays large baby pink eggs. Betty loves blue berries, having a conversation with you in her sweet peep chick language and loves to be held ... by anybody who comes to visit the gardens.
Eggs produced by our six lovely ladies.
