Still 0/8 here. They are just lounging around every day.

Slackers, you may have to have the talk with them, while munching on a chicken leg.....

2 this morning to finish up my 1st dozen plus 1. And she's still sitting so I may get more throughout the day.

Welcome! Sounds like you've got a lovely bunch of freeloaders like me!
I'm 0/3 again today.
But my barred rock is getting redder & more wattle-y
RIR is getting close, I can just feel it.
Radio silence from the ameraucana.

Oh wow they must be related to each other. LOL

0 for 12 here with hatch dates between 3/26 - 4/2. No early laying breeds, and 7 of them are bantams, but still! Several of them are squatting so I'm hoping it won't be too long.
