Ever since we started adding blue-shelled eggs to our mixed dozens, there has been an increased interest in the different breeds of chickens. So, we thought we'd introduce you to our original layers. Over the last couple of years, we've allowed the breeds to mix, so currently, our flock has become a sort of Field & Forest hybrid variety!
