So my serial broody Peach decided to sit for the 3rd time this season.
She is a freaky unbreakable broody machine that lays for a month, sits for a month, and wean the chicks in a month, rinse and repeat.
So this time I'm gonna do my first hatch a long!
The eggs should hatch on August 15.
Ferragosto is a public holiday celebrated on 15 August in all of Italy. So this can be an holiday theme or a summer theme!

In the pic below, Peach is the salmon one, Little Hen is the duckwing EE, and Pencil is the buff Robusta Lionata in front with the floppy comb - the one behind her never laid a fertile egg so I don't set them.

Could I have egg number 5 please? Name can be Horiatiki, or Ammos.

Hope you have a good hatch!

We celebrate the 15th of August as well; we call it Δεκαπενταύγουστο. I assume both have the same religious beginnings
Sure thing!
Peach has a 100% hatch rate.
IIRC this holiday comes from the Roman Empire, back then it was called Feriae Augusti.
 
For some reason I cant edit my first post anymore
