I could get to -20 here this weekend according to the weather. I have 100 eggs in my bators due to hatch on February 5. GO for it

x2 Cheering you on!

Long as you have a place for the chicks to be while they grow up that's warm, go for it! Eventually those temps will raise. . .

I have not done this many before. No one told me it was so easy to "win" autions on Ebay

I have a 5x3 brooder and if they all hatch I will be building another - for the first 4 weeks. Then I have a grow out pen with a heat light on an enclosed porch for the next 6 weeks. That will bring me to mid April. I think I will sell half in the first couple weeks. But yes I was a little overwhelmed by the number of eggs I ended up with.

People are just too generous

If I won an auction for 10 eggs they sent 16. Not a bad problem...they just add up fast.

If you get any spare roos from this I would be interested in buying them . . . or eggs . . . or sharing from my meat bird project; cornishxrockxBCMxredcornish

I have been gearing up to add in Shamos too but would be excited to get some more "meaty" nonrelated BCM blood in there. Was thinking you might be interested in the same
