I did! I put 20 on lockdown and I keep hearing they are very hard to hatch, so I am thankful I ended up with 10

That is pretty typical. About a 50% hatch with an inc. Sometimes I luck out and get a 70-90% hatch. I hatch a batch weekly. Keep your humidity up, these little guys dry out fast. 40% until lock down and 60% or more during lock down. My latest batch was five of six which was really good.

Nice job! They are adorable! My broody hatched mine, so I can't take any credit. I am attempting a few in my incubator before I buy some nice eggs... lost a bunch already... so I had to rearrange things in the incubator, but hopefully the 4 I have left will do something!

Calling all serama experts

I have a pair of birds, bought from 2 different breeders, both who have stated that these are serama and they were sold to us a such. I breed them. I try to sell the chicks, as serama of course and lately on cl I have been getting very hateful people exclaiming that they are not serama but old English game bantams. I do not want to deceive anyone, I just want to sell my birds. can someone please tell me if these are indeed serama or not, thanks in advance
