Are there any swaps in the Alachua, Newberry, Gainesville area? I haven't read through every single post just saw the first one in the thread and saw the older dates so didn't know if there was a more complete list. Not that I don't mind driving 45 minutes for good chicken deals just wondering if there was a swap in my area. Thanks!

still working on the wife about ducks....even thought of slipping a duck egg under our broody hen, Jeanie.
" Well I have no idea, how that happened, hon. Honest!"

We won't tell, our lips are zipped!

So for incubating here in the always humid florida how much water do y'all usually put in the incubator or do you just do dry hatches? I'm new to incubating so just curious what everyone else does

I finished it! Thank you all for your help in this process, I am extremely happy with how it turned out and the girls love it too. Here is my story!

Love the coop but be careful about having it where it's not allowed. Neighbors move and you can get new ones who are a pain in the a***. Also if you are in an HOA most specifically forbid chickens. But good luck with your little ones. The coop looks amazing so I don't see why anyone would complain

My girls enjoying the warmer weather after the cold snap. Coop is almost finished. Just need to add the front air vents for flow to the back window and the outside roost. Not really a fun journey

but glad it's done and soon my little ones can join the bigger girls.
