How did your hatches go? Hopefully lots of new fluffy babies . Are you still getting to many hatching eggs for your incubator? I finally have some room in mine.

Usually 10 days to 2 weeks. Sometimes a few may be for 3 weeks, but not usually.

I have some year old buff opingtons for sale.

Your neighbor might have meant "May". After all, they both start with "M" I don't think the wind ever actually stops here in north east Okla.

Well last summer, with mine, the hotter it gets, the better they lay.

Welcome to Oklahoma. I hope you like it here. What part of East Ok. did you move to?

I wouldn't take less than $2.50 last year, but if the feed doesn't go up again, I'll probably stay at that.
