That is amazing! Her feathers really are beautiful. Love you, Ember!

Time flies when you're having fun! Sorry @Prince and Pavo I didn't see a notification of your question when you sent it.

Ember is still around with us. Over her first winter even with her booties she lost a couple toes but otherwise is doing good still. I can confirm she is actually a she as we were gifted with an egg today that is brand new to us - not from my chickens and obviously not a guinea egg (it's the egg in between the chicken and guinea one in photo below). I did see her have nesting behaviors (throwing straw on her back) just the other day, too, so looks like my gut instinct was correct She has these TINY wattles on both sides of her face, and her feathers just have this beautiful penciling. I'm happy she's still with us

Awesome. I'm so glad to hear she's doing well. Congrats on the egg!

That’s incredible! So glad to hear she’s still doing well. I am also a bit surprised to hear she’s laying eggs! That’s amazing!
