Where are you in No. CA? I just bought a Dickey and would be happy to hatch chicks for you too!!I don't have the money. Not even for the $75 CL cheapo one but I was going to squeezeeeee it out if it were a good deal. Jeff is so kindly hatching some of my EE and bantam BLRW eggs for me. He is SO nice! I am hoping for a broody in the meantime but I want some bantam BLRW before something happens to either one in my pair.
My friend warned me to air the Dickey out for a while tho, cuz it was likely just painted so I might gas the eggs. I think I will run if for a week before setting any eggs - just to be safe.
I live in Redding. Near Bella Vista/Pale Cedro corner. I feel bad even asking Jeff! I have 7 Orpingtons- all heritage and no broodies yet. NOT complaining because its about that time they all stop laying or something lol. I just assumed someone would feel like being a parent or something. lol
