The same. Jacob is excited about collecting the eggs! They are not yet full grown, we have red tail hawks here, so I hope they get to full size and dont become supper.
I was excited about the blue eggs too:) Choctawsquaw and I went in together and bought 25 aracauna chicks from a hatchery. The original ones I had didn't make it a year, but I got enough blue eggs, and incubated them last year. I am now getting about 4-6 a day blue ones. I was pretty happy that some of my chicks grew up to be full aracauna.
Did you know those are the healthiest eggs you can eat? At least that is what a lady told me that I uses to give eggs to. She liked getting the blue ones. Her and her husband were vegetarins, because he had MS. She did alot of study about it when he was first diagnosed and something about meat speeds up the the effects of the illness. I believe it worked too. He is still able to walk and its been like 12-13 years since he was diagnosed. By the time he was diagnosed he was already about to go into a wheelchair. The changes they made improved him, which the doctors said they had never seen anyone improve, maybe stop progressing but not get better. Anyway, she told me they were the best eggs to eat.
