carrie Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I was so eggcited yesterday, one of my Fentons laid a lovely blue egg I told my colleagues today and for some reason they didn't share my eggcitement So thought I'd share it with all of you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joybelle Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Is a fenton blue a hybrid or a pure breed hen joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrie Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 Fenton Blue is a hybrid, cream legbar with something else but can't remember what. Mine are quite sweet looking with a little tuft on their heads. The one that has laid has more grey in her so I am hoping the other will lay a green egg.

Chickvic Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Very impressive - was it very big? Never had a triple yolker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Wow . Blue AND a triple yolker . Cause for celebration, I'd say . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrie Posted June 26, 2009 Author Share Posted June 26, 2009 The triple yolker was about the size of a medium egg with 3 tiny yoks in, she has laid since and the eggs have been rather small. Today my other Fenton has laid for the first time so it's a 2 blue egg day and also a full house as all 6 hens are now laying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
