Firefly - I just have 1 Welsummer & 1 SLW. I'm leaning towards boy on the Wellie & girl on the SLW, but they're really too young to tell for sure.
 
Does anyone near Gainesville/Ocala have some fertile eggs I could buy now ? My GLW hen is still broody, poor thing, and I am thinking of setting her up in private quarters and giving her some eggs to hatch out. I don't want to wait until the swap because the poor hen has been broody for a few weeks already. This would be my first time hatching chicks - advice is welcome!

I have some Frizzle Cochin eggs if you want some. My only advice would be to have a bator on standby in case she abandons them (even if it's just permission to use a bator just in case).
 
Oh, I also have plenty of RIR/EE cross and Blue Rock/EE cross that ou could have for cheap if you don't mind mutt eggs.

Do you know what do these crosses turn out to be like - in appearance and temperament?

I haven' hatched out any of the Blue Rock/EE crosses yet, but the RIR/EE crosses come in a ton of different patterns...my EE roo tends to throw lots of colors, from white to peach to red to striped. The babies are all very nice just like my adults.
