my favorite heirloom of the moment isn't a tomato but this cute little hen called a silver sebright. they are about a quarter size of standard chickens and lay little white eggs. everything's mini!
i like this one a lot too. it's a blue silkie, originating in china. silkies have black flesh and black bones!! wow. they are prized for their medicinal qualities and apparently the meat, if you can get over the fact that it's black, is even tastier than your standard pale, fleshy toned variety. but i prefer to think of her with her feathers on.
she's just so snuggable!
