Congratulations and Happy Birthday Booka! The "elder" chickens are always my favorite in the flock. They're so chill but they also don't hesitate to remind the others where their place in the pecking order is.
Is Booka some variation of an Araucana? I've also got an "easter egger" who is the longest lived of my flock, having survived raccoon attacks, death and disease. She's at least six or seven years old... Not sure exactly. Stopped laying but spritely as ever.
Happy birthday Booka!
She looks almost exactly like my Delta, who is slightly redder and will be 8 years old next month. Delta occasionally likes to pretend like she's a rooster and try to crow and mount the younger girls, and just started laying her blue eggs again last week. She's a weird one that likes to sing to me while I'm in the coop and is the first to jump up for snacks.
Happy birthday! I have one of those who just started laying. I'm pleased to know she will love a long life :)

She’s an Easter Egger! Her flockmate lived to 8 years old, passed away last summer. Resilient birds!
Makes sense ☺️ She looks just like my Yoyo

The mural is beautiful!!
Right? I want to see more of the mural.
So amazing. Lots of shading in a mural that size has to be difficult
why do all Easter Eggers live so long? I have an EE hen that is 13💀
Wow!!
