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

[ronott1]

Well I will probably be hatching this time, but i might be a few days early... I found an auction for eggs that I am In love with, I just have to hope it doesn't get too big

A few days early is fine. Set date is only important for the hatch rate contests.

We had so many of those in Alaska they are annoying as crap! My cat had one in her mouth and when she let it go it flew up and squawked at her for a good hour!!!!

For the best hatch rate contest, do the chicks have to hatch on New Years? Or can they be early or late? It would be hard to get them to hatch at exactly the right time. Sorry if this is a stupid question.

2 days before and after set day. Not hatch day since they can hatch at different times.

I just found out my supposedly Ameracauna turned out to be an EE. I want a full blooded Ameracauna. Anyone have any eggs?

There are some white Americana eggs on ebay. Also some Lavender split Auracanas (no ear tufts).

Just an fyi, those Araucanas do get some tufts, but some are also tailed... I know the seller and have some of hers in my project pen... she is a good person...
