Robin ChoCOOlate | Crunchy Peanut Butter Eggs |
It's the return of our Easter eggs! Every year we partner up with ornithologist Dr. Karla Rivera (a bird nerd if you will) to make our eggs imPeckably match the natural color of each species found in the wild. We bet bird mommas would have a hard time picking the right one! Our Robin eggs are filled with fresh made crunchy peanut butter like the nostalgic childhood treat at the center of an Hacienda Victoria dark shell. Each egg weighs approximately 30g Bird Fact - American robins have a different reason for investing in brightly colored eggs - detecting lazy birds from other species that dump their own eggs in someone else’s nest. Robins have a constant annoying neighbor, the brown-headed cowbird, that does just that. Because raising someone else’s kid takes a lot of energy, it is usually bad for the robin’s real babies. So having brightly blue colored eggs helps the females detecting the impostor (brown-headed cowbirds are usually cream with brown spots). Good for you robin mama! *Le
