    All chicks hatched with fused toes.

    I purchased hatching eggs from someone that has a very "sought after" line due to egg color. I ordered a half dozen because that was the max amount you could purchase.

    Help what breed is this hen?

    I bought her as a chick last spring from a friend. She may be a barnyard mix but I’m not entirely sure. She lays large tan eggs, I’ll attach a pic. She is the sweetest. We call her Delphina 😉

    Best Advice for Shipped Hatching Eggs

    Please share some of your “best advice/tips” for hatching out shipped eggs. I hatched out my first batch of shipped eggs last summer and got 12/14 (silkies). It was my fist time ever hatching eggs so I was completely shocked. A few months later I hatched out a batch of Wyandottes and only had...
