    Good deal. What breed did you all decide on?

    I can't remember what she said they were, but she had 3 heritage breeds and they are a mix of them. They were chosen for dual purpose but the nursery also threw in a surprise chick (she bought 300 her first time ever!) which lays green eggs and it looks like I have 2 chicks that may be from that bloodline. I think some are Plymouth Rock, some other New England sounding name...other than that I can't tell ya. Have to ask her again.
    The chicks are beautiful. Some totally gray, black with different patterns of white, cream with dark markings, two tone gray bottom half and a gorgeous rusty/red/orange kind of color on the top half - those two are the ones she said will lay green eggs. Time will tell.
    I apologize for nothing...

    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    Cat's are food... not friends!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.

    Will do! My kitty is well behaved (ok, she's a house cat) so not worried about her but if the dogs go after them hell will reign down upon their heads like never before!
    I apologize for nothing...
