Grats! Maybe you need to get one of those old fashioned train whistles and wake em up each morning "Aaaaaal aboard the egg layin train!"

Well I got 9 eggs from 9 hens so I guess all mine are laying. Still have 4 more to start but not really sure when they will. I don't think it will be any time soon.

Let's see if we can get this going again!

I hatched these Chicks in December. They were six weeks old on Sunday and Here are some pictures.

This is Maranda/O. Folks from the Gender thread think its a Pullet. She hatched out of a nice Chocolate egg with Speckles. She is a Marans



These are Easter Eggers. One of five is a Cockeral for sure. I may have one or two others, but right now four look like Pullets.



Ok, now for the countdown--3 to 4 months to go

I had to edit this to fix the pictures _ Ron

My Leghorn is 32 weeks!!!!!!11

However, I noticed one of my black stars, Buckbeak, was getting a redder comb, though it's still very small.

Wooohooo, it's that time of year again isnt it? And I just hatched out 5 adorable fancy Faverolles from Texas. Very excited about these babies, and hoping like crazy that I get at least two girls!

So... lessee...180 days or so?

Well it's finally happened, 4 eggs from 4 hens in 1 day, it's only taken 5 months

. So now I'm waiting for my 2 new girls, 1 EE and 1 BW Amerucana to lay, I can hardly wait for blue and green eggs

I have missed receiving egg updates... Right now I am getting from one to three eggs per day out of nine hens. All are old enough, however winter hours have not helped. I have yet to get an egg out of my Easter Egger. So I am hoping that when the daylight hours lengthen I will finely get the pretty colored egg I have been waiting on since I bought chicks in May 2011.

22 days!

All mine from last year are laying and it is going to be a bit before I start hatching again. We are right in the middle of looking for a place to buy and I really don't want to have a bunch of baby chicks to move while it is still some what cold out.
