Congratulations, and welcome to the world of Buckeyes! If you're interested in learning more about the American Buckeye Poultry Club, please see our website here:
I set 27 Buckeye eggs (plus 49 of other breeds) Wednesday night. It will be my first hatch of the year, yeah! It has been difficult waiting for the weather to warm so I can start hatching. Can't wait to have some new fluffy butts in 19 days.
JamesA eggs, Day 9, candled, not sure what I'm looking for actually, keep comparing to pics and egg from the fridge, maybe the light isn't strong enough, and suddenly one of them seemed to move. Is that visible at day 9 or am I just seeing the yolk slosh about?
I'm kind of bummed -- I had ordered ten Buckeyes and fifteen Mille Fleur Leghorns from Sand Hill. I got a letter from them that their Buckeyes are pretty much sold out until July (late for me, as we will have a busy summer and I was hoping to get all my babies more or less 'weaned' before then). I'd like to get some from Dave in Ohio, but have to wait and see on that (I would have ordered from him in the first place, but really want those Mille Fleur Leghorns, and I didn't really want 25 of either breed!). I guess it's a good thing, though, that more people are getting into Buckeyes!
Sand Hill did say that if they get a really good hatch of Buckeyes when my Mille Fleurs hatch, they'll send me what they can spare.
