📅 June 9, 1973 — The Day a Horse Became Immortal 🏇🔥
“Some horses run. Secretariat flew.”
Bill Nack, the man who chronicled Secretariat’s life like an epic poem, stood at Belmont Park that day and witnessed what no one could ever forget: a 31-length annihilation that wasn’t just a race , it was a revelation.
The crowd roared. The stopwatch gasped.
As Secretariat exploded into the backstretch, the lead grew , 10 lengths… 15… 20… and still he surged forward like some mythical beast set loose on mortal turf.
By the time he hit the homestretch, he was alone , running against time, against history, against the limits of what we believed a horse could be.
2 minutes, 24 seconds. A world record for 1½ miles.
Unbroken to this day. Unbelievable even then.
Nack wrote: “It became clear that I was watching the greatest performance in the history of American horse racing.”
He wasn’t wrong. That wasn’t just a Triple Crown win , it was divine poetry in motion.
Secretariat didn’t run with the wind. He was the wind.

🟥🐎 Big Red forever.

UNDERSTANDING COLORED EGGS AND COLORED EGG LAYING CHICKENS

Egg colors vary widely, adding beauty and uniqueness to each farm. While many are familiar with classic white or brown eggs, several breeds produce stunning shades of blue, green, cream, and even pink. The color of an egg is determined by the breed's genetics and pigmentation added as the egg forms.

Here are some fascinating chicken breeds and their corresponding egg colors:

French Black Copper Marans – Dark brown eggs are rich and striking, often with a slightly glossy sheen.
French Blue Copper Marans – Light brown eggs that retain a rich coloration, providing variety in Marans egg production.
Heritage Welsummer – Light green eggs, a rare trait among traditional heritage breeds, making them unique additions to any flock.
Moss Egger – Light green eggs, a beautiful shade resulting from a combination of genetic traits.
Alchemist Egger – Light green eggs, an exceptional hue often cherished by collectors of rare egg colors.
Isbar – Light blue eggs, a Swedish breed known for its ability to lay consistently colorful eggs.
Alchemist Blue – Light blue eggs, another distinct shade resulting from careful breeding selection.
Azure Egger – Light blue eggs, further expanding the spectrum of pale yet vibrant blue shades in egg production.
German Bielefelder – Light brown eggs, a dependable, attractive color often sought by backyard farmers.
Double Silver Laced Barnvelder – Dark brown eggs, producing rich, deep shades that contrast beautifully with lighter eggs.
Bantam Cochin – Light pink eggs, adding an elegant pastel tone to an already diverse egg collection.
Serama – Light cream eggs, petite in size but stunning in softness, completing the spectrum of rare and colored eggs.

Many factors influence the depth of egg color, including diet, genetics, and environmental conditions. Colored eggs have grown in popularity, not only for their uniqueness but also for their appeal in specialty markets and farms. Whether you prefer deep earthy tones or pastel blues and greens, colored egg layers bring charm and diversity to the backyard coop.
