Langdon is doing great! And look at this beautiful site (I am missing my WTB egg, Betty didn't lay today) I can't wait until my Wheaten pullets start laying to balance out the color a bit, chop chop ladies!

Thank you! I love the diversity! I'm waiting on my 3 youngins to start laying and that will be that, until of course these eggs hatch 10 days to go!

Candled just now (y'all already know) all the remaining eggs (19) are still killing it! Those littles were moving all over the place If Langdon was getting his groove on I'd be setting another batch right after these hatch!

That's my luck with all my shipped eggs. I only expect 10% to 30% hatch rate and I normally hit 80% to 90%.

I had really good hatch rates with shipped eggs last year, and it looks like this year is starting off on the right foot too!

@wrathsfarm around what age do your cockerels start trying to breed?
