My first to start up again was my Minorca from you and my OE. I also have a bantam Cochin that has been doing well, course they are all frozen when I get them. Dogs are happy with all of the eggs!
I 'bought' Super Blue Egg Layers (they seemed all correct) 3 Orpingtons (Blue)- one was the others were 2 BR's and one I have no idea-it was barred.
I also bought eggs 12 Icelandics and 12 wheaton Am. Out of all of those eggs, most were infertile. Only one Icelandic survived out of the three...
This is what I found for the city of ham lake.

So this morning a builder working on clearing for a new house down the road called. He had a nest of Mallard eggs that were going to get crushed or if I wanted I could come over and take them (he has seen my coop from the road). I drove over right away and put them under a broody cochin that I...
All four Icelandics have hatched-1 yellow one and 3 chipmunk's. Only 1 of the wheaten Am's hatched, I will give them a couple more days-just in case.
Thanks for all of your advice when my power went out!
So instead of hatching a little late (or not at all) due to a power outage....I woke up this morning to 1 chick and 1 pipped about 12 hours earlier than originally anticipated! Both are Icelandic eggs, we'll see how the rest (6) do.
Our power is back! I wrapped the incubators in towels so hopefully they will be ok. I just used my last foot warmers just recently but thats a great idea. I could see some of their little feet up against the shell last night. One is on day 15 & the other day 8. Fingers and toes crossed.
I guess I wasn't really fully stated what I was looking for... I am looking for someone who raises them and then sells them already 'done in' as I can't do it.
I am wondering if anyone on the north side has true Ameraucana hatching eggs for sale. I am looking for between 9 & 12 to hatch out...
Is there anyone that raises meat birds on the north side (Forest Lake, Anoka, Blaine). I have been looking for a good place to buy my chicken. I just don't want to buy it in the grocery anymore.
Thanks, Forest Lake is just a quick 15 min drive from here. I'll have to call them and see if they have anything scheduled.
I bought an incubator.... first hatch due on 2/23. A friend gave me 13 of her barnyard mix, all 13 are alive and kicking so far. This is even more exciting than I...
