    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Here are some pictures. They are a week old now. Unfortunately one of them seems a little lethargic. It seems it got a little too cold, so it’s warming back up. I got a decent amount of different colors this batch. We had to stop by at tractor supply to get some chick feed, and of course they...

    That sounds like a good mix! Adding a long tail is a really good idea! You could use some Phoenix or Yokohama. But if I were to be breeding chickens to suit the environment here, they probably shouldn't have long tails or feathered feet due to the mud. I guess I can just keep them in a coop for...

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I would love to have a hen with a crest, beard, and feathered feet! I once visited someone's house and they had a chicken that had a crest and a beard. It was a Salmon Faverolle x Easter Egger x Golden Laced Polish. It was a beautiful bird! It was golden laced with a beard and crest, but I don't...

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    The last chick finished hatching yesterday, so now I'm done with this batch. In total 36 chicks hatched. 4 out of 45 of the eggs were clears and then there were a few duds. All in all, I'd say it was a decent hatch. The incubator was at 102 degrees for the first three days (due to the 2...

    Yes! They are so adorable! Such a cute breed. And their eggs are beautiful. I absolutely adore crests. :D And feathered feet too. If only they had feathered feet.... 🤔 Looks like I've got a breeding project to do. :D

    My eggs are on day 15 today, and all 41 are doing good. I'll candle one more time when they go into lockdown.

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I’m on day 10, and I have 41 eggs going strong. The power went out a few days ago and was out all day. We had to hook up the generator. Thankfully it came back on before we went to bed. I started with 45 eggs, and pulled 4 clears. I will candle again in a few days.

    15th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I’ve been trying to get some cream Legbars for 4 years, and I finally just ordered some from a hatchery. They were never at the feed stores when I went, and I bet if they ever were at the feed store they were gone pretty fast. Wow, that’s crazy! I’m glad you were able to get some! They are...

    I wound up putting about 40 eggs in my incubator on 3/3/24. Just about a week too early. :hmm
