    Checked the first three eggs of the year last night and all of them are fertile! One is from the Super Secret Pen #1. Did not get a fertile egg last year until egg number 18.

    Wow congrats!!! [​IMG]

    I didn't know you were getting eggs now too. I haven't gotten another egg yet. I am thinking today I might find one. I can't test the fertility of the first one I got because I am selling that one to be eaten. If I get one today I will check for fertility and then eat it haha.

    Super secret pen ehh? [​IMG]

    If I told you it would not be super secret. Hoping for something new though.

    I am hoping for something new too. I put three Cameo hens in with the Spaulding Purple Black Shoulder cock. Brad said it won't work. [​IMG]

    I am guessing it is those birds he has that he was thinking could be a brand new variety - although they might not be old enough for breeding yet so who knows. We know they are in pen #1! Wait, or is that pen #1 of several secret pens? [​IMG]
