Okay, so we started a project early this year: raising Black-Copper Maran Chickens. These chickens have a novel egg color. They lay chocolate colored eggs; rare in the U.S. We found a hatchery that hatches B-C Maran chicks and decided get some.
Well, this week was our pay off week. We have chocolate eggs now and I am excited. I guess I am a chicken fanatic...sorry cant help it. I love em'! So to go along with our green eggs, Rhode Island brown, and cream colored eggs, we now have chocolate. Kind of a rainbow I guess.
