Some of y’all may remember that since chickens only lay for 2-3 years, I rotate between three different colors (red, white, and dark) so it’s easy to tell which are the oldest (and therefore ready to cull). This year, it’s the blue troublemakers’ turn; since they’re quite aggressive and not especially good layers, I decided not to get the same breed again. But these black beauties are supposed to be good layers with a calm temperament, so they may be just right. I tried several times to get a good video of them, but since this was taken the day after I got them home, they may not have been fully settled in yet; next week y’all get to see how fast they grow, and in the meantime I get to enjoy their cuteness every time I go into the bathroom.
