I am going to have olive eggers running out my ears..... I will sell some of those for sure.  I think I have a lavender in one basket.  (This is my best hatch of AM eggs I think only 1 didn't hatch maybe 2)

 

I know I will sell all the Black Barred rocks (I don't need them, I need the blues), maybe I should try to sell some SBEL since most all of them hatched too, 17 more I think.  With that and some Olive Eggers that should thin it down pretty quick.  I think I need to go to a flea market to sell them ASAP.  My roo guy sold most of his birds by noon ep.gif I will give them a week on CL and then maybe go to sell them.  I need to thin out a few brooders anyway.
 

 

He sold them at a flea market??? Seriously???

DMRippy, 14/16 in the brooder. 2 DIS.  Most are black barred but it looks like there's at least 2 blue.  yay me!  I needed some more BR regardless of the color.  My second batch from you should be getting close to hatching.

 

Thankfully I am selling some guineas tomorrow.

 

I am not going to order any more eggs for a while.hide.gif

I didn't get a lot of blues either.... hum.... what happened to 50/50 and I have 5 blues WTH?  I think I got 2 in one basket with 8 or 10 and I don't remember about the other basket.  It had late hatchers in it.   See.... that is why I need to get the reg BR hens OUT of that pen so it will up my blues. 

 So much for 50/50 !  THe blues sure are pretty.

This particular flea market has an animal section.  I know they had all kinds of fowl.  I think goats and rabbits... maybe more.  It is a pretty big outdoor flea market in a rural community.

 

I came home with 22 white guinea big_smile.png (didn't really like the environment but they were really little so I took a chance and they are doing OK)

Now you have me thinking--I forgot to look at the blue cuckoos to see how many are blue. I;ll look in the morning so I don't wake the chicks up.

I said that too and then a dang customer just had to buy all of my chicks so now I HAVE to hatch more. Besides I just set guineas, RIR, and I have two more packages of eggs coming next week. So since I will make it through July without shutting it off there really isn't any point in doing it at all this summer is there? If these customers would just quite buying all these chicks!
