    Another Hatch-a-Long! Western Theme - Yeehaw!

    Eggs are set! I cleaned the bator initially on Wednesday or Thursday afternoon, just to get the major mess out as best I could using just hot water and soap. Today I sanitized the water chambers with a diluted bleach water mixture and let it sit for about ten minutes before rinsing it with hot...

    Love this one too! My step-dad had two cocker spaniels when I was a kid - one was “Calamity Jane”, the other “Norma Jeane”! :love

    Another Hatch-a-Long! Western Theme - Yeehaw!

    That’s right, I’m literally right back at it, less than a week after my last hatch! :oops: Another family wanted 12 chicks, so here I am hatching more! I will be hatching them at home, and all eggs are from my own chickens, now that most are laying again. I am actually quite excited to see some...

    They are named and hatched already, but I will check out your article! I love making lists for future chickens names (because let's face it... there are always more chickens in my future!!)

    I will be soon! Tomorrow morning I will be setting a dozen more for another family, they need more chickens on their ranch so I am happy to contribute. :love I'll probably set 4 or 5 more eggs from this hen. Also my ancona is laying again, and I have a few of her eggs so I'm excited to see what...

    Babies are going home today, I’m a sad mama. Snuggling my favorite little one before she leaves soon! This is the one from my Easter egger and rooster. My friend is going to keep me updated on how she feathers out! I don’t know why I just love her so much! :love

    It's so funny you mention the BarAle, the other eggs that I hatched in this hatch-a-long are from my friend, who now feeds BarAle to her birds and she swears by it. Her horses are doing great on the BarAle complete feed too, so I'm going to be buying a bag of that for my older gelding who is...

    I feed Nutrena All Flock! It's nothing super fancy or too expensive for a smaller flock - but can't argue with these results! We will have to see how the next hatch goes, another parent confirmed she would like an additional dozen, so I will be setting about 12 more eggs on Saturday!

    Thanks for all the support everyone!!! Every hatch is such a wonderful experience. I never dreamed it could have gone this smoothly. A few of the kids parents have come in in the mornings to view the chicks - and more people want chicks than I have to give, so I very well may have another hatch...
