Acres Poultry hatching thread with aliciaplus3!

[BlueBaby]

Tried talking the turkeys into coming out a day early to play, they are not having it still snuggling in their eggs without even any external pips.
Humph I wanna see what colors they will be.

I know what you mean. I'm closely watching my hatch over here also. It can be anytime now!

Are you using heat lamps? Sometimes some have Teflon and it'll kill everything in the brooder.

That's true. I use a heat lamp in mine, but I stocked up on the light bulb's needed before they could try to ban the sales of them. I bought a case of them.

Stopped st a house up the road on our way home last night DD spotted a pen of NN there and wanted to know where they got them. Turns out they were from the feed store but she talked the guy out of all the eggs they laid yesterday! They were mostly red birds but had nice clean necks, something we plan to work twords because a good number of our Nn have big bibs indicating they only carry a single necked gene. From what we saw most of these should carry a double necked gene.

I'm still trying to get the clean neck's with mine, but the closet that I get is the one's that have the bowties. I really need to get some clean necked one's too to add to my flock too, somehow.

I prefer the Rose Comb Legbars.

You should come up for a visit.

Can you answer me something?

If a Polish and a sebright have offspring, what combs will they have?
