OMGoodness that is amazing

I have a small announcement of my own. I'm getting a new trio of bantam ameraucanas. To add to my 1 hen and 4 pullets!!!

EDIT: A few of my pullets have that curved looking beak like your girl does. A couple of them have a straighter beak what do you make of this

I just got an email saying that they are going to be shipped out on Monday and they should be here Wednesday or Thursday!!!! I'm soo excited

Okay, so I know for sure who my girl is and who my boy is, but what is the one on the left?

Here is my for sure cockerel pictured in the middle with my 3 yr old with the ice cream sandwich face!

My for sure pullet is on the right.

Now, what do you guys think this one on the left is? The comb is reddish, but doesn't appear to have the 3 thick rows. Also, the other 3 whites I have are CLEARLY male like the guy in the middle.

You're going to have to wait and see on that one. Just name it Pat........

Are those birds that old already??????

Forgot to ask.... How's the leg color on them. I was having difficulty with them last year with the other cock bird breeding them.

So far I have 12 babies in the brooder from Jeans eggs. 4 Lavs and 8 blacks (or splits). 1 more zipping in the incubator, a bit of a slow poke. Not bad from 18 eggs shipped clear across the country!

So, did you have a final count on them?????

Sorry! Wound up with a migraine and was avoiding the computer, lol.

I wound up with the 12. The last baby completely zipped, then quit for some reason, without pushing the shell apart. Wasn't glued or anything, so I'm not sure what happened. One internally pipped, but then quit. I'm pretty thrilled with the whole hatch! Every egg developed, but 2. If I remeber right all the eggs marked lav hatched

Everyone is going great!

I wound up with 5 split lavs and 2 lavs from Chicken Stalkers eggs. I would have had more, but the temp must have been a bit high in that incubator, and I think they got disoriented from trying to htach in the egg turner. Again, all developed but maybe 3, and a bunch made it to hatch day. Still not to bad though!

So I wound up with 19 total. I just moved them out to my bigger brooder, will have to take some more photos

I also should have my chicks from John shipped tomorrow (I hope).​
