It looks like my summer chicks are laying! I've been wondering what color #eggs they would lay. Their mothers are #EasterEggers who lay blue/green eggs, and their father was a #BlackAustralorp, which lay the darker tan / light brown eggs seen here. It turns out the answer is pink!

One of the risks of #handraised #chickens is that they may always see you as a perch, foot warmer, or beak wipe. Luckily, I don't mind!

(For chicken fans, these are a mix of #BlackAustralorp and #EasterEgger and are approximately four months old.)
