7th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2016 Hatch-A-Long

My post-lady knows me, too.  She called last time I got shipped eggs and said, "I'll bring them right over if you're home."  Nice lady.  I wasn't home, but my Dad was visiting and was at the house at the time.  He said she walked up to the door holding the package like it was a bomb.

What a wonderful woman. Bless her heart.

Do not give up hope!

Those dark green eggs can look murky and be fine because you cannot see into them very well.

Mostly a bunch of random backyard mixes with a couple from RIR and RIR/BR pen. I love the variety you get with mixes; you never know what the chicks will look like.

Hard to tell on those EE's! They get dark fast when a chick is growing in there. I had questioned one of my OE's, a dark green egg.. in my last hatch, thought is might be gone, but, I questioned it..kept it in, and it was the second chick to hatch.

Cool looking bird I am going to have to look them up.

TERRIBLE invasive non-native birds that destroys many crops and sickens/kills livestock by leaving droppings in their water.
A real pest!
