Beauty-Box Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 After what has seemed like a very long moult, Speckle has started laying again! We have had an egg off her every day last week and this week. All her feathers are back and she looks beautiful (must put a picture in). I have noticed she looks darker in colour now, is this normal? Two eggs a day again!, I'm off to do some baking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaime Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Speckle is cute - and i see she hasnt attacked your bulbs in the pot. I'm hoping to have chooks and a few flowers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 It is normal for their new 'fashion collection' to look a different colour. Sometimes this is just because they are maturing and getting an adult plumage. But usually it just looks different because the old feathers had faded.
