I have a trio from Zook and a pair from Cubakid. I was expecting a low hatch rate but I have been getting 70-90% and ended up with 80 chicks this year. Not bad for my first year. I tried the incubator and had no luck but my american game hens are doing a great job being moms.

Wow, it was only 92 in TX dropping to 66 tonight

Very odd for this time of year! Last year at this point I think we were at 20+ days, of 100+.

Can you feather sex Cubalay's? Here is my trio at just over two weeks. 2 have tail feathers, one does not not. It is 2 days younger than the other two. The 2 corner already have downward tails, the other does not have a tail.

Side views are better, but from the top it looks like the two in the corner are males the other a female.
