I switch from shavings to sand last summer because I felt the shavings seemed to harbor flies and had more odor issues. Sand works great. Less odor and I use a small rake to scoop it clean like cat litter. I still use shavings in nest boxes though

I have a porcelain roo if you're interested. Located in Putnam.

Does anyone have (or know of someone who does) F3 olive eggs? I have F2s that I just love and would like to add to the flock. I haven found anyone has an F3 project going.

I do have two white ones that I'm not sure what their feathers are doing. The gray is filling in like a normal Silkie. The two black have normal feathers that are curling- frizzled. And a white frizzled. But it's the first two I'm having trouble with. Especially the one in this picture.

I have been searching for frizzled polish. Are these chicks from your flock? If so do you sell chicks? I have been looking for several weeks. I have checked in the buy sell trade forum without luck.

My favorite sizzle baby from my recent hatch. Priscilla. Hope to see some curlies soon!

my favorite newbie. A few more in bator and several in brooder. Hoping for some frizzle! :)

Day 18- went to remove turner and lock down. I have a pip? Several are in there airspace. Do smaller eggs hatch earlier? I recounted days and I have a mix of shipped and my flock eggs. 100 degree +/- 1 decgree was maintained. The only thing different this time was I really left them alone...

My avatar photo is from my F2 olive egger. Lays gorgeous eggs. I hatched her from cpartist eggs. Great stock. As for my sizzles, they will be mixed colors. I'm so excited!!!
