Chat Thread for the New Crazy 24 hour Auction

[Sambi89]

Anyone waiting for more Svart Hona eggs, it's going to be a while. Both girls are full on broody, even with no eggs to sit on!

I would love some but I'm not sure I could afford it. . . . How much do you charge?

 

[Amberjem]

I'll be posting FOUR auctions in a few minutes! One of them will be a huge box of eggs (probably 40 to 50 eggs).

And even after all that, I'll probably have eggs leftover to boil and feed back to the hens.

do you use lighting in your coops?

I've actually been dreading seeing another Svart Hona auction go up - my bator is already packed (small bator, not that impressive)! So I'm good with being patient! Thanks for the heads up, I will relax for a few days and return to staring at the eggs already in the bator.... oh, and work, ya, they expect me at work.

No, I don't. My pens are outside and the days are really getting longer now so they're starting to get a lot of sun.

I'm not sure. Maybe around 75 hens? That's Marans, and a handful of EEs and OEs.

I also have the Seramas and a broiler project.

kewl that was interesting so what size weight are they turning out to run for the hens and the roosters? and cockerels pullets?

 

[ladycat]

I haven't weighed them yet, I need a proper scale first. But they are HUGE. The adult hens must be well over 10#.
