EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Akrnaf2]

I just saw the pic of this amazing chicken
Can someone identify the breed ?

Wyandotte?

A version (maybe mix) version of blue laced red Wyandotte??

They should not be that orange -more deep red
This what mine were like:

Nice bird!
This breed don't do well in our climate, it is more cold durable.

They are very cold tolerant, unfortunately the hatchery varieties are often downright nasty in temperament so I don't have any right now.
(Yes, yes, I know, your uncle's cousin had the sweetest SLW you ever did see, but that is just a general description of the temperament of many of said hatchery birds)

Not typically one for tantrums, Duckling was beside herself when I dared give her a pink cup. She wanted the purple one that had been sitting in the living room overnight. With milk in it. I had to wash it (I couldn't just get a clean purple one), and pour her milk into it.
Twenty minutes later, she broke down again. She wanted me to switch to the cup I'd offered originally.

And you think Kristen and I work hard? I swear children are why my sister got grey hairs in her thirties, and I didn't until 42.

I hope you enjoy her. It beats wasting your life working a job that ultimately doesn't matter.

6 chicks are out! Last one has zipped but the others are in it's way and it hasn't pushed out.

Are those plans $10 or $50?
I tried the $10 option & got nowhere. I wanted the conduit lengths, bend angles, & cut list; I can figure the rest out from the picture of yours, I think.

ETA  Got nowhere with the $50 option, either

Finally figured it out, but seems to require iphone or ipad; I have neither

What size conduit did you use? 1/2" or 3/4"?
What angles?

Book form is on Amazon.

Yes the colors seems to much perfect!

it reminds me of Sally's Blue Brahma
