    Thanks for the replies on the pic. The 20 I have in the bator are from a pied hen and a lite lavender or pearl gray male... the lite lavender is the one who led me to the nest( I was sneaking and watching him) so not real sure. but I am hoping for good luck. I just love BBC

    Quote: Aww, 5 new babies, congrats! Hope you get a great hatch rate from your most recent batch of eggs too! yes your Hens should lay again this year if they are still breeding, your weather is working to their advantage, and they can find shady cool spots to lay a new clutch of eggs in.
