    The 7th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-A-Long!

    We set the eggs to hatch on Easter, because many families visit our Seniors on Easter and also get a chance to join our excitement in the new hatch. So happy to see the effect of such a small gesture. Best Wishes to all those hatching now.....Phil AKA. The Cottages.

    Update on the new waters: They work great! I have them in 3 coops now, and are much better than the open waters I have used for years, the birds (even very young) learn how to use them within minutes.
