There here! Well I went and picked them up. Saw my post lady and she said they were there at the office but they weren't going to deliver post to my street cause of the ice and all...blah blah...long story..went down there straight away and they were there. They are now safe and resting before I turn on my bator... Yay! So now I will start to cook them tomorrow morning... I'm in!

7x Black Marran and 8X Ameraucana eggs

Can my girl, Popcorn , join you for a Feb. 3rd hatching??
The only broody hen out of 12! She is an EE and has been growling, hissing, and biting at any of the other hens if they come within 1 ft. of her nest box! She has 12 eggs of mixed breeding under her. I marked them with the brooding start date and am only going to allow her to set on 12 at a time. Any extras will be culled from the nest and set aside for putting into the incubator once the current incy clutch is done hatching

SOOOO excited to have a broody, hope she continues her good work!
