They are a little bigger than Sparkle&#8217;s eggs were, with the same size yolk, but more white. Sparkle&#8217;s eggs have the smallest amount of white I have seen on any eggs.<\/p>\n<p>Just to give perspective this is my smallest frying pan at only eight inches across.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9630\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/barleys-eggs.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9630\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9630\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/barleys-eggs.jpg\" alt=\"Barley's first eggs\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9630\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barley&#8217;s first eggs<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_9631\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/sunday_breakfast.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9631\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9631\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/sunday_breakfast.jpg\" alt=\"A lovely addition to our Sunday breakfast\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9631\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A lovely addition to our Sunday breakfast<\/p><\/div>\n<p>They were lovely and here is the lovely girl herself.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9632\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/barley_my_little_poser.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9632\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9632\" src=\"http:\/\/www.carolschickens.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/barley_my_little_poser.jpg\" alt=\"Barley, my little poser\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9632\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barley, my little poser<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I have been trying to get photos of all the girls over the past few days as I want to do a post showing them pretty much feathered up again.

I have never come across a chicken that is such a poser.<\/p>\n<p>Wherever I am Barley is there in front of me and whenever I point the camera she poses or photo bombs the shot and she is beautiful!
