    Early bird! Day 19, first hatch

    One more early bird! The two are in the brooder now. I’m seeing one pip in the incubator, rocking, and cheeping. Tomorrow will be a busy day. :jumpy:jumpy:jumpy

    Early bird! Day 19, first hatch

    Just wanted to share the cute surprise we got today (day 19)! This is my first real hatch. A dozen eggs from my flock with 10 making it to lockdown yesterday. Rooster is an Alchemist Farm BCM. The eggs are: - 5 BCM x BCM (brother to sisters) - 3 BCM x Alchemist moss egger - 2 BCM x random...

    Update: Nevermind! Didn’t realize moving was one of the ways to break a broody hen. Guess I’ll raise them by hand again. (Boo hoo, I get adorable chicks to play with for a few weeks. 😉) Hi! Does anyone have a broody hen they’re willing to sell or let me borrow? I have eggs due to hatch in a...

    Death layer do they go broody

    Old thread, but yes - my only deathlayer is broody right now! She’s about two years old, first time broody.

    Wow, and I thought we had to drive pretty far for medical and we’re just an hour from Santa Rosa!

    Recent Alchemist Farms Experience?

    Well, crossing fingers they all make it! One of the BCMs is a cockerel and I’d very much like to keep his genetics going.

    Recent Alchemist Farms Experience?

    Oh no! Now you’ve got me worried. I got three marans and three moss eggers from them. The chicks are 7 weeks old today and have been in a separate area of our coop for the last week. They all seem healthy - active and curious from the day I picked them up - but they’ve only been exposed to the...

    Bay Area BYCers!

    I have too many boys! Now both my Ayam cemani, a belgian liege fighter and I think one of my spitzhauben needs a home. I’m in Oakland and can deliver to Sacramento.

    I’ve posted the Cemani on CL, but it would be nice to keep them in the BYC family, so to speak.

    Last one for now. Pretty sure one of my Spitzhauben is a boy. Face is much redder than the other and he play fights the other boys. So far, I’m looking at rehoming four cockerels. This one is a Greenfire one too, 9 weeks.

    Not the best pic but the luster on the Cemani feathers are amazing!

    And another. Just spotted shiny new saddle feathers coming in. This one is a 9 week old Belgian Liege Fighter from Greenfire. He’s already a big boy and should grow to be rather large. He’s the darker one in the back. The ones in front are my Cemani roos also up for grabs.

    I seriously can’t believe that out of 17 chicks, I’m ending up with only 3-6 girls (jury’s still out on three of them)! :barnie

    Well, the boys just keep on coming! Looks like my last two Ayam Cemani are boys. They are so pretty, but I’ve got my roo picked out. The 9 week old is from Greenfire and the 14 week old from a breeder in Texas. The older one has some dark brown lacing on his cape, but otherwise black through and...

    I’ve wondered the same! As a chick, he looked a lot like the black Swedish flower I had years ago. He does have some hidden white on his body.

    Rehoming Swedish flower cockerels! Well my luck ran out this year and we ended up with close to half a dozen boys. They are about 9 weeks old and super sweet. One will happily take a nap on your arm. They’re from Greenfire lines. I’m in Oakland and can meet up in Sacramento next weekend. Let me...
