Alaska hatchers..How is everyone doing? Baby pics !!!!!!

[sgt_dane]

I candled last night late, I will be taking pictures of the candling tonight....
I think the shipping is just too hard since there is an extra day on getting them here.
I seen movement in only one egg out of the 11 shipped eggs. I have 2 with bloodrings and the rest look clear, no development at all.


Anyone know where I can get LF Pure Barred Rock eggs in Alaska?

If not I will have to find someway to get them express mailed to me....

I copied and pasted this from craigslist. Hope it helps

Hey, I've got fertile chicken eggs available for incubation or to set under a broody chicken. They are a specific breed-Barred Plymouth Rocks. They are ready to be put into the incubation process. Incubation for chicken eggs are 21 days @ 99.5 F.

Breed Description: Very quiet bird. Rooster hackle feathers are used for fish-fly-tying. Excellent layers of brown eggs, the hens are not discouraged by cold weather. Their solid plumpness and yellow skin make a beautiful heavy roasting fowl. Also good with children. Average weight; Male: 7 pounds, Female: 5.5 pounds

Asking $15 per 18 pack or $10 for a dozen. If interested call Andy@907-354-3774​

Ronny, there is your chance! The GA to AK shipments seem to be doomed.

Cyn my polish were the same way. I ended up with two out of this last shipment, none the first. I only ended up with 3 Dellies from Shelly....which I am certainly thankful for!

'K Deb I'll look on Ebay. Sure would like to find that locally

Hmm, I have a barred rock pullet and if he survives I'll have a male too... course it will be MONTHS before any eggs or babies!

Doggonnit, I have had such good luck from your neck of the woods too. Well, relatively, but this is too bad!

First day outside in the run! I haven't quite convinced all of them that's it's REALLY cool to be out there...LOL They were all in the new coop for 5 days and seems quite comfy in there, so I thought it was time for the outside adventure.

It's all open right now for them to go in and out, once everyone rushes outside I'll be moving it around the yard.

I will check into this, I think I found a secure Fairbanks address for them to go to as well.

These are the 12 that are left from the original 17... all sacked out under the black light...LMAO!!
