This lot plus maybe a few from tomorrow will be going in for a Valentines day hatch if I get any. Various hens with two young cross breed roosters. I have seen the boys doing what boys do with the ladies so this will hopefully tell me if the boys are working and with who exactly as I know which egg belongs to which hen. The two tiny eggs though are from my silkie and pekin bantam (aka bantam cochin) pen
