I don't have much to report on the chickens, but I know y'all wait anxiously for these updates, so... here ya go.

Esther |
Rocky and Toasty Crunch continue to lay approximately one egg each per day. Approximately, because every so often, they don't. Esther is not laying yet. She's not doing the submissive squat, but her comb is pretty red. The thing is, Easter Eggers aren't a breed--they're mutts, and the hatchery mine came from uses different crosses to produce a variety of colors, patterns, and egg colors--so there really isn't a "typical" age for their Easter Eggers begin laying.
I'm still waiting patiently. Sort of. Really looking forward to discovering what color her eggs are.

Rocky |
Rocky has taken to pecking Esther. For no apparent reason. Esther has taken to avoiding Rocky. For good reason. So I guess Rocky's at the top of the pecking order, and Esther is at the bottom, and Toasty stays out of it.
