Hatched 5/11 and 6/3. These gorgeous chicks come from
A award winning bloodline. message me for details! Located south of atlanta in the peachtree city area.
@fuzzi Martha sure does make some beautiful chicks! I wish one of my gals would go broody and see it through, I’d love to see a hen and her chicks! My new crew is just too cute! I lost one weak little chick. So sad, but really thankful for a good hatch rate this time around!
had a dozen eggs and 11 hatched! Four bantam cochins on 4/6 and 7 various bantams on 4/9. The staggered hatch was a success and I’m glad I was able to save the 4 bantams my broody abandoned! So excited for these fluffballs!
I love this and that you used pallets! I always see my local feed store just giving these away, I need to get some and make something like this for my flock!
I love that a frame! Not sure what’s best to move Martha before or after, I’ve never done a full hatch with a broody before! I would think maybe after they hatch? Will moving her before they hatch increase the likelihood of her abandoning the nest? Good luck to you, she’s a gorgeous hen!
Just had my first bantam Cochin hatch. Pipped on 19 and hatched on 20. I’ve got two more bantam Cochins who pipped today on day 20. I also have some silkies and some sultans and none of those have pipped yet. Lots of rocking though…
First bantam Cochin hatched, pipped day 19, hatched the 20th day! I have two others pipped, just hoping for a successful hatch! I’m doing a staggered hatch, I’ve got 7 others due to hatch on the 9th or 10th. I hope all those chicks are doing well even with an earlier lockdown. There’s movement...
That’s what I was thinking but this is the first time doing a hatch like this so I figured I’d send out an SOS and see what the more seasoned hatchers would suggest!
Hello!
So as I posted before, my broody sat on eggs until day 14 and called it quits. They are due to hatch 4/6. Eggs are all developing as they should. I also have a batch of 7 eggs already set to hatch on 4/9 in an incubator. Is it possible to hatch both with no issues in one incubator? What...
Hi! I’ve had a broody showgirl sitting on a clutch of five for 14 days now. She gave up and keeps leaving the nest and doesn’t want to sit on them anymore! I have a clutch of eggs in the incubator due to hatch 3 days behind this, can I put the abandoned eggs in the incubator and do a staggered...
