You got your girls I’m gonna have to live through you by vicariously because I live in a senior retirement community yet have chickens here. Oh thanks for sharing. Enjoy.
Ours are lighter in color right now also. The ones we have that are older are a variety of the lighter to darker color like a Rhode Island red. Some tend to have the whiter feathers. These are across between the Rhode Island red and a Leghorn. The Leghorn is a white chicken so that’s probably the reason for variety of color in their feathers.
