    Pigeon Talk

    So I just bought a bird from Strombergs. I was happy with the process. She is a red blondinette. I requested a 2022 hen for my single frillback cock and that's what I got.

    December 2021 Hatch-A-Long

    December 2021 Hatch-A-Long

    Looking forward to pics of little NN chicks. They're so cute and popular this year! I went ahead and candled my 2nd batch of shipped eggs, 4/8 eggs look to be developing. The 2nd batch spent 2 extra days in shipping so I'm glad half are still going.

    Candled my shipped eggs tonight, 9 out of 12 are doing good. On day 7. I'm pleased. I've never ordered eggs from such a far distance, Illinois to California.

    EE Serama Project

    This cockeral is 50/50 Serama/EE. I have him in a pen with some purebred Serama hens. The first batch of their eggs are in the incubator. I am curious if the chicks will end up more Serama-ish looking.

    So sorry that a raccoon got your rooster. I lost my first batch of f1 chicks last night due to a burnt out heat lamp & record cold weather. I have another 6 eggs due to hatch this week.

    Nibbles spent last night in the nest box, I think she is getting ready to stay broody. Her eggs are not fertile so she will be hatching ducks this year. Hope she won't kill them.
