5th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2014 Hatch-A-Long

[ronott1]

What are you hatching? It is great to have you here.

Yes I will be joining will set one of my 3 bators

That is great! Do you use one of the bators for hatching?

Can you show swedish flower hens in america?

I have a Breed that is not in the APA, EO Marraduna Basque. There is a group working on getting them accepted. They are showing them and providing the Judge with a draft proposal of the Standard being drafted.

They cannot win the breed awards but can win some general ones.

SFH should be the same. For 4-H, you should get a list of Accepted Breeds.

I have a white silkie hen that was born this past spring so not a year old yet and she went broody yesterday and she's on 4 eggs

Please add me for NYDH. So exciting. My last hatch did not end well

and I now have an australope broody on two different nests. Silly girl. Is it ok to do a broody hen and an incubator? Is that cheating? Ha. I have 3 brown sex links and 2 black australorps. And these are the various eggs we get

Yes, Broody is an ok Incubator....I love it!

You have been added to the list.

Someone posted a picture of a White sllkie on a thread. It was a pullet. I said it looked like it was going to be a great broody. I was asked how I could tell and I said that all silkies look like Broody Moms to me....

I agree SFH should be the same. I have Cream Legbars and they also are not in the APA but a group is working on the standard that is now on its second draft. Many have shown the CLs with wins and good feed back from judges.

Quote: Im not in the 4H so I never got a list.

It kinda stinks since every breed I want to raise isnt in the APA. I want the more rare breeds lol
