Jan./Feb. 2014 hatch a long

[dolfi]

Hi everyone. I am in Florida and tomorrow night will be a very cold night. I'm worried about my babies outside. But in my incubator I had a total of 30 eggs. Yesterday I took out 3 clear. But the rest of them are moving and looking good. They are due on the 16th. Can't wait. I have 12 of my own long Island red with two who knows what roo. And 7 from a friend's yard. Lol surprise. Which hen lays green eggs by the way.

What color Brahma do you raise?

I have a 2 dark roos and 3 light hens. One roo stays out with the mixed flock cause he likes them better.

He goes by Babysitter Casanova. He is protective over any/all chicks and shares his food with them. And because he is always dancing around the hens.

Really want a couple of buff hens.

Do you have them?

My 2nd English Orpington has pipped! Tomorrow is the 21st & my little early bird is waiting for playmates. It's taking all my self control leaving him/her in the incubator.

Congrads, they will all start popping out now. You have a long night ahead.

Have not seen English Orpingtons before. Googled them, lots of different colors. Or search just gave me all orpingtons. Which do you have?

What do you consider cold in Florida? I lived there way back in the day...the 60's! I lived in Fernandina Beach. I still remember walking to the beach. Love the memories. Here is Utah, we get pretty cold! Will be in the teens tonight, but so far, we've had a pretty good cold spurt. It was either in the single digit, or miuns for a couple of weeks. Love it when it is in the 20's at night.

I am thinking the hen that is laying green eggs for you would be an EE..Easter Egger. Or, you will get a real pretty blue egg from a true Ameraucana. Wheaten Ameraucana's lay the prettiest blue egg.

Yaay, I've seen the English Orpingtons JD. They are big! Gorgeous big birds. The rooster I saw was every bit as big as a Jersey Giant. Big boy!

Southern, did you say they are blues?

I did some silkies this summer. It was fun. Got the prettiest buff, white, and blue out of them. I have a recent photo of one..the buff...Hoping it's a girl.
