Day 24 is here and I have 16 Buckeye chicks. Pretty happy and excited about that. Thanks to you all for your support and help. With getting 16 chicks that means I got at %50 hatch. I'm happy with that maybe I can do better in the furture. FYI Meyer hatchery sells chick and chicken boxes, haven't seen that before.

Scott, that is great! I just finished my Buckeye hatch too. I started with 26 eggs, but only 10 made it to lockdown. I hatched 9 (#10 was an early quitter). I would like to hatch more Buckeyes. Actually, I would rather buy chicks, if anyone is selling and shipping chicks!

Kathy congrats on the Buckeyes. I should have said that Meyer has shipping boxes for sale. I'm with you on buying chicks instead of eggs.

great job HAR . Now the fun part comes in raising these little buggers up.Buckeyes are sweet little chicks that usually come running to you when you feed them.

Now that is a good looking hen, from her comb she looks to be about 1 1/2 to 2 years old.
