Show and Tell Time...

Baby Monitor went off @ 4-ish this morning..
Berk Sow started delivering her piglets. She had 4 before we could assist. 11 total with one fatality. I assume crushed or stepped on. 10 pure breed Berkshires.
The next 4-5 days will be critical as far as their well being is concerned. Too dark to photograph.. this was taken around 11 am today.View attachment 1150699
On a darker sadder note, my Red Blue Splash Whyandotte Rooster somehow got in with the Turkeys and my Tom Turk killed him.

Burried them together.. bummer town daddio..

I posted some more photographs here.. https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...thread-byc-site.1189765/page-19#post-19031330

Hi Cynthia.

 

[Cynthia12]

Good morning fellow chicken lovers!
3 seramas, one almost out and about 13 more to go! The ones hatched 2 days early and they are looking good

Fun! I will have chicks in a couple of weeks. I don't normally hatch now, but I want some good layers out there by spring. May hatch some cuties later. I have the red sex link in now.
