    BYC Valentine's Day Hatch-a-Long

    Nuture Right 360- Shoe String Method

    With the polyester shoe string I am having trouble keeping the humidity down. However with the cotton shoestring I am having trouble keeping the humidity up.

    The AMERAUCANA thread

    I am leaning towards getting the black Ameraucanas at Cackle Hatchery. I have had good experience with them with shipping. And it makes me feel better that they are NPIP certified.
