It's HATCH DAY at the Bratcher Ranch!! :D

I have 5 of 7 Littlepeddler Black Copper Marans appearing to be viable at day 14. Not bad for shipped eggs. Some are very dark eggs but I can see definite movement in 4.

oh yes!!!  I would set those two nice darks in a basket to hatch separate and then zip tie ankles after hatch! so you know who they are! nice eggs!  how did air cells look? The air cells on almost all of them were loose. The only one completely detached and rolling was the lightest egg. The two...

Eggs are here from Littlepeddler Marans! I am SO excited! I will set these 7 tomorrow. I have another dozen coming to be set next week :)

Mine too! It's like Christmas except the packages all say do not open until Haloween :D what do you have coming? I have Black Marans coming from Littlepeddler, feeling kinda apprehensive as this is my first hatch!

Frizzle Tolbunt Polish out of Greenfire stock, yes. I had two but lost one. I did find some hatching eggs of them too. (Only 4) I may get them to add to the 6 Wheaten Ameraucana to try to ensure I have a few chicks to raise together given the time of year

BEAUTIFUL! I already had 4 Legbar pullets. I just got 10 (6 pullets and 4 Roos) from Greenfire on Wednesday :) I can't wait for my older girls to start laying. Should be anytime now as they were early April hatch!

I considered more Ayam Cemani as I have the two pullets but my long term goal is egg color diversity, so it's gonna be Legbars, Welsummers, Araucana, Ameraucana, and Isbars (with a couple of Marans mixed in for variety) lol I do love the uniqueness of the Cemani though, congrats!

I did find a breeder in South Carolina. Weathering a hurricane right now but quickly answered my inquiry and is reserving the next batch (6+) I doubt that they will arrive by the 10th but I will set them when they arrive and follow behind. This is my first hatch so I will need to watch those...

I'm in! Looking for wheaten Ameraucanas to set... Lol the race is on to pick a breed or assortment :)
