But hes gotta be just plain Hickory until hes Ole, at least until hes a viable and competing roo

Yay! Got you down! We love them too. They’ve been SO docile but friendly. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but they’ve quickly made top of our favorite list!

Got Batch C into the incubators in the cartons, got the last hatch's incubator cleaned out, got the new nature babies tucked away into our new brooder! and introduced them to the feeder and waterer, put a few of the bantams in with them to spread out the number of chicks a little better, got our Orpington eggs in a separate incubator and air cells marked for lockdown (YAY!), annnd did some candling on batches that needed it. So far so good.
