    2 cockerels and a pullet?

    Thank you. They seem incredibly obvious to me but then I started reading on the forum and decided I might as well check in just in case. Of course I picked out 3 of the 4 hens for my friend. Lol.

    2 cockerels and a pullet?

    They seem pretty obvious to me but before I sell just want to confirm. No roo behaviors yet but 2 seem to be obvious cockerels compared to the other. Hatched 6 FBCM eggs. Sold 3 chicks to a friend. Her 3 look just like my one with very little comb/wattle development while 2 of mine seem to have...

    Hatching with 2 broodies

    Thanks! I tried to scroll back and do a little catching up but you guys have been busy! I didn't run across the pictures of the FBCM grown up except maybe one with one hen in the background? I have 1 FBCM hen from a previous hatch that I love. Although the neighbors dogs came into the yard...

    Hatching with 2 broodies

    Hey all! Just thought I'd check in and man has this little thread kept going! I've missed a ton. Just wanted to let you know I tried another hatch (FBCM eggs I got locally). My silkie went broody at the same time so input 4 under her and 8 in the incubator. As of today 6 healthy chicks and the...

    Hatching with 2 broodies

    Hey all. Great pictures! Fuzzy butts are so cute and motivation to try again next time. Hoping my Wyandot goes broody again soon. Nothing happening in the bator. Saturday evening would have been day 21. Tempting to break them open to see but will give them another day or so just in case. Very...

    Hatching with 2 broodies

    Thanks man. It is what it is. I will say- already getting snide remarks on the new thread. LOL. I may know a thing or two about animal health and care that I maybe never let on about on this board because I don't want to deal with it. Just gotta let some things slide and go on with your day...

    Day 21- I think my broody just quit!

    I realized it was a risk with her being broody for a while. My other broody had finally stopped sitting after about 9 weeks last time she was broody so you just never know how long they will persist. Just rough to see them stand up late on day 20.......

    Started another thread on what to do with the eggs. Helen was off them again and they were getting cold. I just couldn't stand to walk away- especially after hearing the peeping!!! So- they are in the incubator.

    Day 21- I think my broody just quit!

    Yeah- they can stay in it. I guess first to focus on step 1- see if any hatch. Then I will worry about the rest later.

    Day 21- I think my broody just quit!

    That's my current thinking. I went back outand they were getting cold again. They are in the bator now. Only problem is I leave for a 24hr shift just after 6am tomorrow.

    Day 21- I think my broody just quit!

    OK- I started 21 days ago with 12 eggs. By a week ago we were down to 3 (2 FBCM, 1 Lav Ameraucana). I had a silkie and a blue orpington (Helen- has had cataracts since she was 6 mo old, partially blind......can still eat and get around but she misses when she pecks sometimes and occasionally...

    Hatching with 2 broodies

    Alright. Had started them in the incubator. But the silly hen went back to the nest. I am going to just trust mother nature and walk away and let the hen do what hens do. My only hesitation comes from the fact that she was broody for weeks before I put the eggs under her and she has sight...
