Hatching is hard work. This little girl had to take a nap.

O First one out! 14 more eggs. At least 10 were positively alive a few days ago. The other four looked good but didnt confirm movement.

Haha! Cornish hen style! Nah, we feed any culls to the dog. Perfect one meal size. We just freeze, and feed as needed.

The only time a rooster is for sale is if it's of great breeding quality, and I dont need any more in my flock- This doesnt happen too often. I do sell pet quality only hens, but they still cannot have any major defects. The genetics of seramas is extremely facinating.

We keep ours in a 9 x 4 aviary downstairs during the winter and fall, and outside in an enclosed cage during the spring/ summer. Love having the aviary to rear up young birds in the house during the warm months. The new aviary is almost done. A few finishing touches left. Ill post a photo when...

Planning to show a few this year. Have two nice looking roos, a few hens, and hopefully get a few that hatch out this spring that'll go as well. Only a few show quality in the bunch at the moment- still alot of tweeking in the line to do. I do sell young hens, and very occasionally a rooster. I...

Hence why they're in the house lol. They wouldnt last long in our frigid canadian winters lol. Easier to get that chicken fix when ita bloody freezing out.

I highly doubt you'll regret it lol. This breed is so interactive. I love big chickens, but these little ones are my favorite by far. Their personalities shine! The little black and white one has to come out for a cuddle whenever the door is open. Literally snuggles into your shirt- adorable!

Muhahaha!! My plan is working...

A few more. Excuse the small cages, our basement flooded the other week, and the aviary is almost rebuilt .

Love the black rooster! Very nice body on him . I find this breed is great generally at brooding- good luck!

A few more.

They certainly are a conversation starter for company. We have them in a large aviary downstairs, and people are surprised by how small they are. Our tiny micro one loves to come out and snuggle.

Absolutely love these guys. Got some eggs due to hatch in a few weeks as well. Hoping for a few stunners!

He was raised with turkeys and things he is one...

I feed any spare eggs to the dog. I have a few that are not breeding quality, so their eggs are removed daily. I dont usually name my poultry unless they are special. The black and white one sitting on my hand is Little 2. And we have a black sumatra rooster named Aladin.

A few photos of some of the seramas. Got a lovely fawn colored younin and booted female I cant wait to add to the flock.

I guess I could always convert that area into a pond. That would still leave 3/4 of an acre wetland for the wildlife. I have been juggling with the idea of putting in a pond for some trout next year :). I assume chickens would be fine with a large pond as long as it's well cycled.

Thank you for all the advice. We plan to make the entire acre predator proof, with no climb fencing, electric on the outside, concrete lining the perimeter, and coyote rollers on the top. My neighbour also patrols the area with a .22, and has plenty of traps out :). We have 30 right now on 1/4...
