Great info about the processing. I'm just hatching out a batch and looking to process them. Was considering getting the A & M but maybe I'll just stick with my jumbos.

Thanks.. end the end I only got two.. The other eggs weren't fertile

YAY ! Had 2 babies hatch out today out of my first test batch of 6. =). Lost one...was deformed =( . Hoping the others hatch out soon.....

Can't wait till you get some eggs !!! =)

Sigh.. I was afraid of that...lol. I'm trying to get another pen here in the very near future as I have set 6 eggs in my homemade "mini-bator". Lockdown is Sunday... eeee ! My first test batch before I set a bunch more. Guess the new pen will get broken in trying to find the culprit. How long...

I've got them on a 30% feed ( Nutrena ' Premium' Game bird feed) , I give crushed/powdered eggshell ( duck and chicken) , have a mealworm 'farm' going and even have a cuttlebone hanging in the pen..just in case. These darn things eat better than me ! I haven't seen the remnants of eaten eggs...

Thanks !

Short of separating the girls out or watching them; how can you tell who is laying? I have 5 hens...only been getting 4 eggs for a while. I realize that maybe not all of the hens might be laying every day. I know there is a theory on chicken leg color ( or lack thereof) that indicates who is...

When / if they do can you please keep me in mind ! Thanks !

Do these guys benefit at all from offering them cuttlebone?

Hope you have a great hatch !!

Can anyone reccomend a good breeder for rosettas eggs?

Go Mystery layer !!!

I only have 2.. and I have heard them get rather loud. But at least it sounds like some native wild bird...lol.. neighbors haven't complained, yet !

How did your eggs turn out?

I like those "double decker" pens !

I guess nobody knows about my question to the leg color theory ?

Is the theory of leg color on a laying chicken hen apply to quail as well? I have 5 hens in with 1 roo. Only been getting 4 eggs. They are all about 12 weeks old. I know that it doesn't necessarily mean the same hens are consistently laying but short of separating all of them out... I wanted...
