I have to agree with you now. Serious breeding requires tough choices. Even if his fertility improves, he may produce slow-pokes too. Cut your losses and move on.

That's exactly my thinking. Now, with all of this being said, I am keeping a strong eye on Oz's chicks. He has the oldest of any I have hatched and several blues. He has 2 gorgeous young cockerels at least, and I really hope they don't leak. If they do, at least it narrows the possible carriers down to 4 girls. If not, Josh was an anomaly. He was the only one with leakage out of my original 8 boys

EE and Spitz hatch is winding down with 5 still in the hatcher. I ended up with two quitters during lockdown, but here is the gang that has moved to the brooder:



There are two blue Spitzhaubens (beautiful!) and five or six silvers in there. The rest are EEs out of my flock.

The other 81 eggs are set up in incubators and hatchers set to hatch on Monday, followed by turkeys on Thursday.

OH...cuteness overload!

Just stuffed 2 dozen shipped Barnevelder eggs and 12 local Barnevelder and Barnevelder/Marans mixed eggs in my Brinsea. 8 of the locals are stacked in a second layer- laying down, I'll flip them over a few times a day.

Will be interesting to see what happens!

Yay!!
Hopefully there will be lots of little peeps & even more little pullets

That's great thinking!

He might even trade you one for a section of your thumb

No word from Sidewing yet?

 

[Miss Ameraucana]

Oh the river is calling....guess I'll limp my way there...

Hope you catch some nice ones Phil! Thanks so much for last night. Don't know what I woulda done without you.

 

[DnDFarm]

No word from Sidewing yet?

No, not yet, but I know what the word will be. I'm going to send him every splash egg I can collect 10 days before his hatch. I just hope he gets some development in his splash eggs
