Broody in Feb!!!??

[rancher hicks]

I know I posted this all over the site but anyhow. That incu that quit? I put the nine eggs under a broody in the back room which is cold and some days her water iced over? Well I now have 4 cm's and 2 dels in the brooder. One didn't make the hatch and she has 2 more. Not including the ten she started w/.
I took the chicks cuz I'm trying to keep her broody as the her original 10 are about a week away, maybe more.

Hens say: Never give up, Never surrender.

There's 2 out now but it was to dark to get a good picture. Hopefully we'll have a nest full by morning.

OOOOHHH, babies !!!!!!

I'm getting nervous, mine are about a week away, 7-10 days away anyways. I don't have much time left to get her a seperated run built, my job, and hubbys job keeps interrupting the coop work.

I can't wait to see the colors I get. Man, I hope they hatch.

Where's those pics? I got up early just to see them.

No. J/K! I got up the fill my bator. I couldn't even pu all the eggs I had in it. I have to save 4 spaces for the replacement eggs that are coming in the mail. I thought they would be here today. But no call from the post office. They better be here Monday. But I still have 4 Buff Silkies that aren't going in and 15 bobwhite quail eggs aren'y goin in either. I got the quail eggs free with the bator purchase. Not sure what I am going to do with them....but oh well.
