    Who's incubating?!?

    Out of the 24 chicks that hatched, 15 of them ended up being roosters, 9 were hens and one little hen died at about six weeks old. Got our first pullet egg yesterday at 20 weeks old. 7 of the pullets are Barred Rock/Cuckoo Marans cross, 1 is a Polish Splash/Cuckoo Marans cross.
