Bet they are cuties! Wonder why they hatch early. Do you have more to go in this hatch?

Mine will be happy to be let out of their pen today. Rain finally stopped. They can spend the day sitting on my porch rail.

There are 2 more eggs in there that should hatch soon. Poults always hatch 1 day early for me. No idea why lol. I have BBS English orpingtons, blrw x orp (project), F2 sex linked Olive eggers and BCM all due Saturday morning. I'm thinking I'm going to sell off all my Marans. I've tried them multiple times because everyone seems to like them but I just can't seem to fall in love with them. English orpingtons will be taking their place.... BIG friendly, loveable things!

42° and Still raining here. All the snow from the other day is melting. It's a nasty slushy foggy mess :/ Looks like temps are going to drop back down to the teens in a few more days :/

Gotta post some poult pics!! :D :fl

I have call ducklings supposed to hatch this weekend.
And I also gave up on the BCM, same reason, they just never grew on me. I kept 2 girls with my CLs for olive eggers, but one is inside being nursed because I found her super thin and damn near dead.
I ended up rehoming my English orps also, they just didn’t sell well for what I had in them.

The wind is coming from the west here. If it continues, I expect a Chinook soon which will help Ralphie send his weather to his eastern neighbors instead of here.

I got that wrong!! Seems Ralphie figured out a way to share. The temperature is 9°F and still dropping. There is about 1 1/2" of new white stuff.

In all fairness, the teens where @Auroradream26 lives can be really bone chilling because of the humidity there. When I lived in PA, the lowest temperature that I saw was -6°F and it felt worse than any -20°F that I have experienced here.

I suppose you get the worst because of lower temps and high humidity.
