Funny thing happened

So. . . yesterday we were all excited to find eggs from our chickens. Then, yesterday afternoon we went and looked again and we found two more!! How exciting! The funny thing is, one of the eggs was white. Now, we were under the assumption that all our chickens were brown layers. We also noticed that one of our "black australorp" hens looked a little different from the other one almost to the extent that we thought it might be a rooster instead of a hen. Well, after finding our 2nd white chicken egg today we decided to look into it a little and found that instead of 2 types of chickens, we have 3. This caused us a little puzzlement as we only bought two types, but these things happen - baby chicks can look a lot alike when they are black! Well, we found that the one that looks more like a rooster is actually a "black leg horn". So, long story short, we have 3 types of chickens, and two colors of eggs. Go figure. Oh, and sorry no picts. I put some of the chickens up a few days ago. . . but it's too hard to see the difference with those picts. Just a great story.
