    Bourbon red hatch

    I am pleased with the little buggers, it was 85 out today so I decided to open up the brooder to see if the poults would go out and explore. Chicks usually don't want to explore much when they are just 11 days old. Well the poults were out in about a half hour exploring and chasing bugs and...

    Bourbon red hatch

    I had problems with the hatch but I'm grateful for the few poults that did hatch. I had 3 chicks and 3 poults hatch, the poults are on the right, one is pecking at my wife's ring.
