All my crazy projet ideas!

[Tookie]

I was finally able to get a new, bigger incubator for myself!
I did end up getting the Nature Right 360 with a quail egg turner I'll be able to put in 56 eggs in at a time, which is going to be huge for me being on a small scale for so long. Really excited to see how far this takes me.
I set 50 eggs in it tonight. Praying for a good hatch rate.

So many eggs! I hope you get a great hatch rate!

 

[Yard Farmer]

I had 2 batches of quite successful old English hatches.
What colors hatches:
7 Silver Duckwings.
4 Cross Colors.
1 Azteca. (The baby of the Brown Red male, and blue hen pictured above.)
1 BB Red. (She might be the best pullet this year!)
1 F1 Golden Duckwing

 

[Yard Farmer]

I have 18 eggs due to hatch tomorrow, to the 21st.
I'll keep y'all updated on those, I'm really excited for this hatch because I have a very interesting cross I made in there. I can't wait to share it with everyone!

 

[Yard Farmer]

I'm looking to get into shipping birds, so if anyone out there knows someone who would like some bantams, please let me know!
I have a couple left.

This pair is for sale, I could swap males to make a pair with that pullet.
$50 for the pair, $25 singles.

*Extra males that could be used to pair with the pullet.*

I do believe that's everything! Kind of crazy I haven't updated in so long and yet, I only had that much... How sad, hopefully that picks up soon!

A huge thank you to everyone who's reading these updates, it means a lot to me!

Thank you for that, Snatcher.
A very interesting read, and a lot of very useful information on how to start developing the breed.
Thank you again!

Your welcome! Always glad to help!

So tonight I took pictures of all but 3 of my breeding flocks tonight, I'll work on getting pictures of the other three tomorrow or some other time this week, but never-the-less, here's the pictures I got tonight.

Flock #1, my BB red's I brought in from NC. Cody Coopers line.

Okay, now for my grow out males.
#1: BB Red - Grow out I kept from early spring hatch, he's okay quality, but I think his younger brother with pass him up. Only time will tell.
#2: Outside line Silver Duckwing - He's looking amazing so far, I think he's going to be a perfect candidate for single pairing with the 1st SDW Hen pictured above.
#3: Golden Duckwing - I got him for free, he looks like an F1, so nothing super special about him. Though, I do plan on working with golden duckwings and essentially making my own line.

I was just as excited when I upgraded to a 56 egg bator this year also

Do you have to be npip certified to legally ship birds in your state?
