Have you ever wondered how a hen can lay an egg every day?

Final results for my narragansett hatch, 10 eggs, 7 poults, 1 poult hatched but died the next day in the incubator, 2 eggs poult dead in egg.

I think my humidity was too high during incubation, need to run a dehumidifier here this time of

year!  Incubation temps were low by 1 or 2 degrees...will remedy that next hatch.

Here's some pictures of the 7 poults, they are almost 1 week old.

Aww, I'm like the others, love the eyeliner! 

 

And those poults in the next pictures shared are so cute.  I got a kick out of hatching those, they have a hard time staying up on their bellies at first.  In the second picture of them, there is one sitting there like a dog or a cat..on it's butt!  Cute.  Makes me smile..all these baby pictures.  Congrats to all.

Wonderful family, very understanding husband when it comes to chickens, dogs, birds, one big Golden Retriever, and thankful to the Lord for all!

No, found a person close by that had eggs forsale, but 5 of the eggs were not fertile, I'm happy with the 7, hopefully I'll end up with a couple good hens + toms so I

can continue my own breeding.  These will range with my midget whites that are 4 months old, but I'll keep the breeds seperate during breeding season.
