LMAO.... I know what you mean by the mobility. Kaylie was crawling at 4 months and walking at 7 months. Her big thing right now is climbing up on things when you turn your back.And your runs look awesome! I use welded wire on everything. I should get a smaller size for the bottoms like you have for the runs, I just have 2x1" on the runs.
How is your hatching season going? I hope well. It seems that this year was my turn for incubator failure. Just got a new one though that I will be firing up today so fingers crossed I get some more babies from him soon. I hope I am still on your waitlist if you have extras too I bet your daughter is keeping you busy! My son is 7 months and he is almost crawling....so not excited for him to be mobile! LOL!
I bought another 600 egg incubator in March.... Hatching has been a little better, but nothing spectacular yet. You know how it goes with silkies.... Not huge layers to begin with and then the whole darn pen goes broody. Other than the few pet quality ones dumped off at local swaps, I've only let go of 3 boxes of chicks so far this year. The incubator itself is working though... I have tons of faverolle, sumatra, and waterfowl popping like crazy. I keep telling myself that I'm not going to fight with the summer humidity again this year. As soon as the peafowl are done laying, the incubator is following suit this year. Big project right now is bringing all the breeder stock in for baths and pedicures...
