    The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    Well only 9 out of 20 hatched for me. The fan quit on my incubator and I didn't catch it in time to make adjustments. I'm glad any of them hatched! I had a few quitters when I candled at lock down and I had one that never pipped internally and one that died while zipping... never had one do that...

    The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    Gah! I hope my Easter eggs aren't fried! I have eggs stacked in my incubator and my fan quit! I'd put them in my hatcher but it's temp doesn't hold steady. I don't know what to do but cross my fingers. :-(

    The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    I set mine on the 14th. I just didn't know if I was too late to have them added to the official count.

    The 6th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

    Is it to late to join the hatch along? I have eggs due to hatch on the 4th. 20 of them; 1 SLW, 1 EE, 5 Bantam Cochin, 3 Buff Orpington, 1 Jersey Giant, 5 Australorp, and 4 Orpa Lorpas... er... English Orpington/Australorp mix. LOL!

    I got my rooster from a family down near Amsterdam and my girls came from a family near Long Lane/Buffalo area.

    Woohoo! I hear peeping in the hatcher. They're due to hatch tomorrow but I already have 3 eggs pipped and a 4th one rocking! This is my first hatch of the year and it always excites me.

    If the girls get back to laying I would! LOL! I'm supposed to be collecting eggs for a gal this week and it went and got bitter cold again and no one is laying! I just have a few breeder pens. I wouldn't claim any of my birds are show quality simply because I don't know enough about the SOP for...

    Oh ok! 4-6 shouldn't be any trouble! LOL! Cleveland is further north than Butler. Where I'm at is almost exactly 20 minutes west of Harrisonville.

    I'm in the Cleveland, MO vicinity and it will just depend on how many eggs I can get into the incubator by then. I only have a few buff hens so it won't be like 50 chicks at a time or anything. How many chicks are you looking for?

    I'm about 45 minutes south of KC and I should have some buff orp chicks available by spring.

    Thanks :-) I hope your hens did the trick keeping your eggs warm! Very lucky you had them. Not a wonderful photo, but you can see his toes alright. The uppermost toe is the extra.

    Until last night, I never killed the raccoons. I always trapped and relocated them. We have a state park about 20-25 minutes away, down in the Amarugia hills where I'd release them. The only time I ever tried to kill a predator was one year when we had a coyote come back FOUR TIMES in one day...

    Faverolles Thread

    Hey gang, does anyone know of a good source for LF Salmon Favs in or around the Kansas City area? I haven't lost a bird all winter and last night a raccoon got into one of my coops and wiped out all my Faverolles. :-( I can't tell you how upset I am. I have lots of chickens and the Faverolles...

    You'll only be about 30 minutes from me. I'm right down 69 highway, just a few miles east of Louisburg, KS... but I'm on the Missouri side of State Line. You can tell your husband that there are plenty of places where you can have animals but won't have to drive too far to get to KC. Even as far...
