Belgian Cuckoo Malines - Next Generation

[Shellz]

Here are the chicks from hatch #1. 2 roos & 2 pullets, I think. 5 weeks old now & growing! On the scale are my 2 boys. The pics make them look darker than they really are. I'll be moving them to the grow out coop soon & will be able to take better pics then.

Hatch #4 is set! As you can see, other eggs have been included, but will be distinguishable from the Malines. I am doing a fertility test with 11 new line Malines eggs. By 10 days, we should have a good idea about fertility & embryo health.
