    16th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    They are such great moms! I used to have 3 but I lost them to predators. Someday I will get more of them to hatch chicks for me. How many do you have?

    16th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I got 3 out, 1 zipping! There a 4 color possibilities with my Swedish Flowers: black, blue, brown and splash. So far it seems to be 1 black, 1 blue and 1 brown. Hoping for the most rare color, splash, but if I don’t get one I will still be happy😁

    Colored my own eggs this year for Easter; I really like the way they turned out! The eggs were light brown and we used food coloring to dye them.

    Sorry to hear that. I guess I will keep a close eye on this one and plan for an assisted hatch, maybe she will make it🤞

    How did the hatch go? I am in the same situation right now, just wondering if the chick was able to hatch.

    Well my hatch is done, all 6 eggs that made it to lockdown hatched! The last one was a wrong end pip but she hatched just fine by herself. I ended up with 3 boys and 3 girls, gave them all to my broody hen and she was thrilled with them. She has been sitting for 3 weeks even though I took the...

    4/6 are out now and the last 2 eggs are pipped, one on the wrong end. Looks like 3 are definitely boys. The 4th I think is a girl. I gave 2 of the chicks to a broody who has been sitting for a while and she seems to be accepting them. I’ll give her the others too if all goes well.
