Esmeralda has had 1 lone chick hatch on Thursday I believe it was. She is still dutifully sitting on the 5 others as of this morning. I may pull the rest today and just let her have the 1. I believe I finally see a decrease in Smokey's fertility. He is after all, nearly 10. Hes such a good rooster, its so sad. He may live out the rest of his years with his favorite 2 hens in a separate pen. My back up roo is a little turd headed 2 year old who likes to bite. I will try to post a picture later today. Nothing is happening with Fern's naked neck olive eggs so maybe tomorrow. And silkied Serama Bridgette's I cant get to to check on, she went broody deep in some bushes...
