Well, we did pick up more eggs so Zippy wouldn't be the only bantam. We got 5 pulleys and 1 roo out of those. They're great little birds, all of them! And turns out, they definitely run things around here. The little roo LOVES my 3 big girls. It's so funny to watch him dancing as hard as he can...

Hey guys! Thought I'd post an updated pic of my goofy little singleton, Zippy. She's so funny.

Those are amazing pictures! What an adorable bunch you have!

Thanks! The other pullets look almost identical and they're all really friendly birds. We love having them!

Hooray!

Now that they've grown out a bit, do they still look like Seramas?

Where do you live? I'm in NC and the humidity is so high anyway, I ran the incubator dry until hatch and it worked out great. To get the temp stable, I had to run the incubator continually for at least 2-3 days before I put eggs in. I figured this all out after 3 failed hatches, but once I...

Good idea! I'll go subscribe!

Ha! I know! The possibilities are virtually endless!

Why didn't I think of that?! That's a great idea! I've been laying down puppy pads, but it's too expensive to keep up. For people who keep Seramas inside during winter, I don't know how they do it! I'm going to have to figure something out. Our downstairs is not being utilized right now. Our...

I've been mixing pine and paper and you're right about it making a 'dryer lint' dust. I've got a couple air purifiers running by the brooder and they get covered in a day by the fuz. Im trying to figure out the best way to brood inside for the winter. By the time they're big enough to go...

It works great for Silkies, but the Seramas have started perching on the edges and pooping on the floor. They're very proud of themselves. Lol

Here ya go! I have another one, like a hoop coop, that's twice the size. Sorry the pictures so blurry.

Yeah! I actually have a little "tractor" over the pool made out of pre-cut pvc pipe with chicken wire zip tied to it. Easy and cheap to make. I use it to bring them outside for a little in the day and it works great. Not predator proof, but good for transitioning. I love the colors on that...

Here's Zippy now. He's so goofy. Lol

Thank you! And definitely keep us updated! Should be fun! I have the funniest picture of when we couldn't take the 24 hours a day peeping from Zippy and decided to put him in with the Silkies. They're looking at him kinda like we were... Lol

Oh! Also, I was going to ask, is that the paper bedding you are using? How do you like it? I tried mixing that and the pine shavings, but there was a LOT of dust. I think the smell was better though.

I can't sew either. Or knit. I did crotchet half a blanket once, but when I walked in to find my cat had unraveled like, 6 months of work, I gave up. But, for that little guy... I'd take it up again. ;)

Oh! I love them! I can imagine the size difference. When Singleton hatched, he was driving us crazy with the peeping! We had the silkies, who were only a week older, but we didn't want to put Singleton in there with them too quick. One unfortunate housefly gets in the brooder, and it was like a...

Hope everything goes well! Do you hatch them all upright? (Seramas) I had one pip too low, and I think if I would've had him upright, it might have helped. And I'm not sure if I'm seeing this right on my phone, but that one little guy looks like he's pretty serious about getting out! Look at his...
