APRIL HATCH-A-LONG come join in

[ROCKIN R FARM]

Congrats on the new baby chicks everyone. I am still waiting patiently i may say so myself lol.
Do any of you notice as the weeks go on the eggs feel a little heavier when you turn them? Maybe its just me just seemed that way to me when i turned my eggs. Well i need to get going. will post more later

Here they are 10 out of 18 (4 early quiters). still giving the other 4 a chance, today is day 22.
BSL, EE, RIR, & Buff Orps. Not sure how many RIR & Buffs, they kinda look alike when they are still wet!!!

Congratulations on the new chicks everyone! Love all the cute pics

My three fluff balls seem to be doing great so far. I have six BLRW due April 30, can't wait they are such pretty chickens

My last hatches went very well. My broody hatched 8 out of 10. My suro 20 hatched very well. Now it is full of Black Copper Morans eggs from my flock , due to hatch on the 30th. A few of my Mille Fleur cochins are also in there.

And I thought I would throw in this picture because the Yellow Pony in the pic is due to hatch out (lol, foal out I mean) on the 30th as well. ;-)
The fat grey is not due until mid June

Okay have a question, Has anyone bought Blue Ameraucana eggs from Gabbard Farms. I was told in another post that Julie sell EE eggs and not Blue Ameraucana. She clearly has both listed. No one as of yet answered my post asking about it so maybe someone in this thread might know. I have 3 of her eggs in lockdown on day 19 right now. So has anyone had experience with her.

I can't say anything about EE's or BA's I have Red Silkie eggs from her right now set them the 14th out of 15 eggs 13 so far are good. I got Welsummers and BCM from her too and they were dark brown eggs and some weren't good but that's from shipping they won't hatch until the 27th. I have read that her Marans eggs are not that dark but these were okay not 8 or 9's but still good enough.Hopefully yours will be the right kind I think mine are. Sometimes other people mean well but when it is typed out you can take things differently than what they meant or they were trying to say her birds are not up to type. If you are wanting the best of something expect to go look at their stock and talk to the breeder and other customers just because it is written on the internet doesn't mean it is the truth. I hope you hatch out beautiful fuzzy butts.

Thank you, But no they were as clear as could be "Gabbard Farms sell only EE's". I still trust what I bought. I also got golden cuckoo marans and some wheaton pene's from her. And will be order BCM and Porcelain Duccles also. I was said on the "Great Blue and Wheaton Ameruacana Thread. Wasn't very nice
