Thanks, I saw them at a state park and just wondered  

Any idea

don't know where you are but if i were close i would get it.

So I have a bearded roo, one bearded hen and 2 non bearded pullets, all hatchery bbs silkies. I don't have things set up to know which eggs are whose, but out of 10 eggs, 9 hatched Jan. 1, and I don't think that there is a bearded one...

I sure do miss mine. I have had one from the time I was walking. You know the coppertone ad, that could have been me. Maybe someday when I get a yard again I will get another

Just go for it. I hatched out my first new years day. 3 black, 4 blue, 2 splash. 9/10 hatched in one clutch, and another 2 blue in another.

Here's a pic of my new hatch. My blue broody hatched 12/31-1/1/2013

My thought on the nest, I will never have nest boxes at floor level again!!
