    24+ Cream Legbar Hatching Eggs $100 Shipped

    Are you still selling and shipping Legbar hatching eggs? Do your hens still produce blue like in your photo here? Thank you!

    What breed are they? 2 weeks old

    What indicators do you look to in order to know it's a pullet?

    The comb is very orange. I've never seen this orange of a comb.

    Ohh, I hope you're correct. And it will be 8 weeks old tomorrow. Thanks!

    Any thoughts on my 8 week old Whiting above?

    This Whiting True Blue will be 8 weeks on Saturday. It is my first one. I have two more, but they are 5 weeks younger, and completely different coloring. So really nothing to compare to, and I'm curious if this is a boy. No waddle, but comb is pretty definite. I'm unfamiliar with this breed...

    I didn't think you were OT at all. I found the info very fascinating! The eggs in my incubator right now are not from my own flock , but I believe she feeds her birds well. Certainly, I'll keep the good nutrition theory in mind when I incubate the eggs from my own birds!

    I am not trying to "kill" the cockerels, so much as avoiding it from beginning, as I do not like knowing birds are culled.

    I hope this happens in my chicks!

    Exactly what I said in my original post about hatcheries. As I mentored above also, I did turn my incubator up to recommended temp. Thanks so much for your info. Super interesting about the store bought eggs, too.

    Quite interesting about the Trader Joe's eggs. What kind of chickens were they? Is your prediction due to the fact that they were refrigerated? Or that I was considering incubating one degree lower? BOO!

    Yes, my new incubator is a Brinsea Ovation 28.

    I did not know that about lower temps resulting in issues. I thought just later hatch date. Thanks for mentioning. I'm going to look into that, and maybe turn mine back up to 99.5.
