Thank you for the info.

No I haven't. Was going to order a govee but thought I had time.

Does anyone incubate? First timer here and I've fired mine up in a rush and set eggs yesterday morning because I lost one of my girls and didn't want to waste her eggs. Was planning to test mate her in March/April with my other rooster who was moved in with them mid December. Not the most ideal...

Merry Xmas!!

Oh and welcome @AmyRoach :frow

Sorry to hear about Randy's passing. Only had a couple of interactions with him here. He seemed like a beloved member here so condolences to all family and friends of his.

I do this also periodically when it's super hot and they are panting just before lights out. I like to think it helps.... 👍

We had them bad this year. I'm near Lansing.

That helps, thank you. I was kinda thinking late March early April being Southern Mi. but maybe that's pushing too early with our weather changes. Specially if we have a hard winter like they are threatening. Just trying to plan out ahead so I can swap my Rooster's out and get a couple breeder...

A couple questions for those hatching in the spring.. If your incubating when do you set up your hatch? Overnight lows are steady at 40, 50, 60 degrees? I've got a brooder I can set up in the house but I would rather use the brooder I built in the barn/garage. I have heat lamps and brooder plate...

What movie are you seeing? All our birds went in quite a bit earlier than usual. Even the ducks and the grow outs who normally stay out til almost dark. I wasn't complaining... I was ready to call it a day.

Oh and I might not be the first to say this, but I'm ready for spring....

Going thru this for the past few weeks. My Isa Brown "lady" spent a few nights in the nest box. Then a BCM hen "Joannie" started sleeping in the nest box. (2 separate flocks but kinda struck me funny that both are head hens from each flock) But I agree, I have to clean them first thing but it's...

Late checking in.. @Dreamzchaser so sorry about your hen. It's always hard when you spend so much time with them and then have to let them go. @RaZ .... there are 2 standards for Marans. English is clean legged and French is feathered. It's hit or miss with hatcheries, but the APA only...

Hey everyone... :frow I've got 3 Olive Egger cockerels I'm looking to re home in the Lansing area, can post or pm pics for those interested. BCM x EE 18 wks old.

Gotta get birds somehow. Sadly no incubator just yet. It's on my wishlist. But so far been lucky with quarantining new comers.

Someone was asking me about Midnight Majesty Marans eggs. Here they are. Prince and his 2 Barred Rock girls will produce MMM pullets. 😉

I would come home with more birds. I have a problem and need to find a "chicken addicts anonymous" meeting. I'm already thinking about adding more birds in the spring. The struggle is real.

Thank you, Mary. I will look it up.

I also have 2 BCM pullets and 1 or 2 OE cockerels. 8 wks old. Pics upon request.
