So much to learn......................... I usually only really research the breeds I am wanting. While at the party I learned a little about the Seramas which a couple of my friends have. Who knew there were sizes named ABC etc.............I do not have enough time left to learn all I would love to know , but it is sure fun working on it.
My hatch yesterday I think is over I had Bielefelders from Washington & Silver Cuckoo Marans also from Washington different breeders. I only got 1 Bielfelder out & 10 Cuckoos (mostly boys) plus an extra from a project bird of here's. Great on the Marans....what a bummer on the Bielefelders. Same incubator no pips on the other eggs. I keep hoping I set them different days (which I have been known to do.....LOL) & forgot to make a note of it but not likely since the one did already hatch. I don't know that I will try again. I haven't done shipped eggs for years til these. I threw in some AMs from my pen to fill out the incubator & they hatched too. One is the cutest fat cheeked blue or splash. It makes me smile...............LOL

how was the color on the cuckoo eggs? l alway looking for better egg color.

Karen these are some of the berries I bought out to you. To make it related to chicken I grabbed one to eat and it had a darn chicken feather stuck to it I thought it was a spider web. LOL Chick feather every where. This vine has gone crazy. Have to go feed the animals.....

For all you duck folks...

A mama gadwall & her 8 newbies.
Saw her in a water supply ditch on my way home.
My first wild duckling siting this year.

Ahhhhhhhhhh.........We had 3 sets of Mallards setting here this year. I think they must be grown babies from previous years.

Big in size but not super in color. I think the birds themselves will be quite nice but I would want to improve the egg color probably a 4 or so right now.

Six little pyncheons here, pipped, zipped and fluffed in under24 hours under first time broody. She worked her magic on all the eggs that I left her with after day 10.

I'm always finding feathers on the rugs at work, no one to blame but myself though.
