3 out of 7 hatched from the bator, the silkie mixes must not have been viable or something. I'll candle them tonight. The broody hatched 3 of her 4, I'll candle the remaining egg under her tonight too. 6 out of 11 total so far isn't bad (for me anyway lol)

One out so far! I just put them into lockdown last night! Goofy thing

Totally heard peeping earlier and now I see a pip in one of the eggs! O.o Was not expecting anything, especially so soon! HOW EXCITING!

Still doesn't look like any growth in my eggs :/ Haven't checked the 3 under the broody yet. *sighs* maybe I'll have to buy a few from the mill after all *wink*

Howdy y'all. Discovered why my little silkie rooster has been sluggish and sicky. Mites. Tiny little yellow mites and eggs covering the base if all the feathers on his head and neck. I kinda freaked. Bathed and blow dried and dusted the crap out of him with DE (all I had ....) obsessively...

Howdy doody ya'll! So to totally crack me up, my rir, leghorn, silkie, and one stubborn ee are all taking turns trying to be broody. xD Yet none of them stay on the clutch for longer than 24 hours (I go back to check and they're on the roost, eggs cold in the nest) I think they're confused lol I...

Howdy ya'll! I might have to smack my little broody hen if she didn't get her fluffy butt back on those eggs today! I know it was gorgeous but I hope that doesn't mean it broke her of being broody already xD Grrrrr. She was out in the run just scratching to her little hearts content. The eggs...
