I partitioned a section of frankenbator off and had 100% hatch rate on 4 eggs. I think I have 8 or so on the ground. I had a few with leg issues that did not make it over the last few weeks. I'm already looking forward to spring.

Gut feeling? These birds are nice. They have good type and seem to be having good color come in. I'm guessing the color of the egg will drop my jaw, but that's based off of what the lady had. My gut feeling is that I will have some of the best BCM in my state. But that was also one cockerel out of 8.
