Cool beans. They are such pretty birds, I really enjoy them. My oldest girls are just starting to lay, but won't be put in with the rooster for a while. I will definitely let you know!

I want the hens to breed with some wheaten penedesenca get a cool olive egger.

I am always ready to help out with Christmas lists!

I have been looking at the 2x2 Incubator Hatcher form Here: http://dickeyincubators.com/



Oh the chicks I could hatch with something like that....

Ron

Wow that is a really nice incubator. Dosemt seem like that are priced that high either.
Is that the one you would buy right now over any other incubator?

Yes, I would buy that one. The price is very nice for it. It was recommended by a person that lives in Roseville. I will probably get one of those for the next hatching season. If I ever stop this year that is...

I can't narrow down my list of breeds. I'm trying so hard but don't want to give up anything!! i'm avoiding rare breed auction like the plague. i don't even look at the BST forum on here. arrgh! I keep making list after list after list, then end up with the same conclusion... build more pens, but I can't do it. gotta make a firm line. man, this is hard!!! I just want everything.
