If you got them from a hatchery, it is less likely that you will have Broodys--they breed against that.

Incubating them is very fun though. Yes, I am a hatch a holic...

Silkies are way to cute for me. They look so happy living in Redding with Zooweemama! I am glad that they were not all boys too.(Chiqita snuck some silkie and a show girl eggs into a "dozen" hatching eggs she gave me).

I had to resist them pulling me to the silkie side....

They were amazing though!

Hopefully that will be getting better. Your crele egg goes into lockdown tomorrow. The four crele eggs your wife dropped off, two of them are developing. Hatch chickies!!!! Deb

That's awesome...

While doing the chicken chores this morning I found 2 SLWB eggs.
Got 9 eggs from my 16 old ladies. I just love it when my older girls start laying and they are all at least "large" eggs,

Yes, post pictures!

Thanks folks. In PMing with Americangame I can only compare with what my quitters did and I don't have enough to history to draw on, My quitters were much drier.

Yesterday was bath day for most of the chickens going to the show today. Despite having to get 24 birds done in 4 hours, I had to run to the house for the camera.

I was trying to make the work a bit more fun while washing his crest, I don't think he was too happy. Shall we name him PeeWee Herman?

And DH is a real trooper, I'd wash a serama and pass it over, here was half the set.
