Had to do some work on the Hatcher, rewiring a new temp modulator again. Dad helped and we got it fixed, but I'm still fine tuning it. It was slightly running warm so I'm slowly dialing it in and hopefully this hatch on Saturday will go better.

the skull faced one in the middle, I think my girl named it Willow.

heres the other yellow one. Dad is tri colored mottled blue, he's half sweetgrass. I'm guessing this one has a sweetgrass mother because both sweetgrass girls were laying by that time. So likely this is a sweetgrass. Maybe a blue one.

I have had Sweetgrass poults with that faint of a line on their backs although it usually got a little darker after the first couple of days.

For some reason they don't get tough like a chicken

Yay! Thanks!

Yay! Thanks!

I am confident that yours also have a nice layer of fat everywhere under their skin which will make them self basting.

Oh yes, definitely! I took a bunch off the one I parted out. (Like I said... amateurish job--it was hanging out the sides everywhere.) A whole huge bunch. I'm going to try and render it out later today, if we don't go to town. Got lots of good bits to make stock.

A good time was had by all at the birthday party. Daisy enjoyed seeing kids. The kids were good with her & totally blown away with meeting a turkey. My neighbor really enjoyed introducing Daisy to her family. I even got a piece of cake to take home!
