Yes momma_hen I am still here (Don) everything is going well. Apparentlly you hatched some of my blue babys eggs huh? I can't get a blue eggs for the life of me
2 green egg layers but no blue.
Wish you all well in your projects
for mama hen
Don Here got my first Brabanter egg yesterday and it was fertile your blue should start laying any day but I don't think you have had her for 4 weeks yet have you?
gee momma- hen she was just a groopy in my flock everyone kept everyone in check hope she isn't a problem.
Mine are not laying yet but I don't intend on hatching until the spring anyway giving me time to get a new fence
area to seperate the brabanters from the rest My small coop should be okay...
Hey Momma Hem Don here hows the blue doing and I see you hatched some of your own. Mine could be laying anytime now.
I was interested if you may have gotten any silver ones as I did in the latest hatch. That is the color I plan on working on
This might just be a coincedince but I had some with sour crop and gave them some extra chicken grip hoping it would help it move along and it seemed to work
as long as I have enough grit around I have never had it happen again
Funny you mention Ameraucanas this breeder happens to have Ameraucanas although she swears the cream brabanters were separated for 4 weeks pryer to me getting the hatching eggs. Out of the six I got 1 cream roo and all the rest are hens good for me to try and hatch out some more interesting...
I hatched out 6 cream brabanters this spring and got a very interesting outcome.
2 cream brabanters 1 silver brabanter and 1 golden brabanter also 1 blue and 1 black
I have pictures of some of them to share
sorry for all the extra posts the second pic is supposed to be a cream brabanter as is the golden one ande the real cream brabanter rooster
Got 2 real cream 1 golden and one sivler from the same batch of eggs from the same source and I went to the farm and she only has cream brabanters
