Gwenne Baile, the mother hen of South Jersey’s thriving backyard chicken scene, knows her flock by more than just their names.

“Sandie, extra large brown eggs; Nellie, pale beigey-pink; Susie, baby blue; Emmie, slight greenish-blue; and Lizzie... same as Nellie, ” Baile said, describing the rainbow of egg hues her pets-with-benefits regularly produce.
