Hide not your talents. They for use were made. What's a sundial in the shade?

Silver Laced Wyandotte - strutting her stuff around the farm. A heritage breed chicken that lays about 200 brown eggs a year. They come in many colors, buff, white, golden, even red and blue. They originated in New York in the 1870's.
I'm in love with their feather patterns. They are popular show birds and hens are known to be devoted mothers.
Only 4 months old, this pretty hen is one of the rent-a-chick flock. Can't wait til they plump up and really fill out quite beautifully. Just 2 girls out of the bunch were silver laced variety. 
More of this chick variety on the way, if not just for pure farm art.
nice lookin' chick!
