Okay Ranch,
Count me in. I have Marans, Seramas, and Buff Brahma bantams in. They'll be a couple of days early....

you doing a bantam batch like me YaY is it true that since they are smaller they have a tendency to hatch sooner?

I may have created my own problem then, because I put one of my Bantam Cochin eggs in with the rest. Don't know if it's even fertile yet, the roo is a mean, lazy little stinker. I plan to candle tomorrow, so we'll see what happens!
