New Little Jewels
From the very first bantam hatch of the year, here are the favourite girls. The gold and black one was an unexpected surprise, and I think she's just lovely!

Re: New Little Jewels
I *think* this is year 3, or is it 4, since a tiny mutt Squinky rooster made me go "hmm", and a little oopsie rooster named Speck put a glint in my eye lol.
Who knew you could get SO many colours and patterns out of so few chickens, without even trying hard?
So much fun!

Re: New Little Jewels
Oh wow so pretty! I did a big dumb dumb lately, the easter eggers turned out some really pretty daughters, all kinds of colours plus some black daughters, I took them to a buy, sell, trade and of course people bought all the pretty girls. Some were almost marked like pheasants.
