This handsome cockerel, Travolta, is looking for his place. I’m sure you can see where he gets his name 🤩. He cuddles with my kids and I every day 🥰. He’s a Lavendar crossed with a so he’s going to have some beautiful blue egg genetics. Both his dad and mom were small, so he won’t be too big full grown. I’ve downsized and since he doesn’t fit into my BCM flock…and I won’t let him in there with them since he’s so sweet…he needs a spot asap. Please pm me and we can discuss 🏦.

This little gal, Cami is a blue ameracauna crossed with a About 9 weeks now.

Pretty sure I misgendered. I believe Cuddles is a Cami and everyone missed out on purchasing her for a very low, almost free price 😂😂. She’s mine now.

I read an interesting article:

The blood and meat spots in eggs are recognized as defects for egg quality. The frequency of blood and meat spots in brown-shell eggs is much higher than that in white-shell eggs in previous studies. However, the actual occurrence frequency and their effects on the microbial composition in eggs remain poorly understood.

In this study, we examined the frequency of blood and meat spots in brown-shell and white-shell eggs, respectively, from Rhode Island Red and White Leghorn chickens at seven ages.

The results showed that blood and meat spots in brown-shell eggs exhibit much higher average frequency (63.99%) than that in white-shell eggs (1.37%). Furthermore, we analyzed the relationship between the presence of blood and meat spots and the microbial community distribution in the egg albumen and yolk. Briefly, we selected brown-shell eggs (n = 112) from Rhode Island Red, among which 51 eggs showing blood/meat spots were classified as RIR_CASE, and 61 normal eggs without blood/meat spot were classified as RIR_CON. Additional white-eggshell eggs (n = 124) without blood/meat spots from White Leghorn were selected as WL_CON. 16S rRNA sequencing was performed in both egg white and yolk. The results indicated that neither egg white nor yolk is sterile, with Proteobacteria identified as the dominant bacterial phyla.
