There are the Easter Eggers, BLR Wyandottes, Red Stars, and one that i am not really sure what kind.

This is after i reluctantly got rid of half…

Did you hatch these chicks? What did you do with the other 1/2? and why weren't we notified?

Sold the other half before they arrived. They came from Meyer Hatchery in Ohio. This is our first time doing this and had a bunch of concerns. So far so good.

They sure look like they are doing well. What assortment did you order or did you go for specific breeds?

Good good. They all friendly toward one another i take it?

Our polish lays fairly well (roughly 4 week), our friend's rarely lays. Polish are a grab bag of how they will lay.

They are right now. I don't think there is much to worry about until they get older and/or when you introduce new hens to an established flock. At least that how i understand it.

Cute birds and chicks everyone!
I candled my eggs again, day 10ish...and two of PC eggs, that I wasn't sure about are moving, so yay!! I have 14 eggs, as of right now, that I am 100% sure I saw movement in.
After reading so much it is sad to know that odds are against these guys

I am trying very hard to not get any hopes up.

Colors? Did you pitch any of the maybes? If some look behind, you will probably have a long drawn out hatch. Hopefully not too long. I'm finally getting brabanter and leghorn eggs every day. I'll try some of the brabanter eggs when a hen goes broody.

There are 2 brown and 2 blue that are for sure alive/moving.
I haven't pitched any yet. I am going out of town Friday, so I will probably look at the ones that aren't moving, and pitch them. I am worried that they will explode while I am gone. None are weeping or smell....I just have no idea what I am doing...
