Hi, I'm new to backyardchickens, my mother is fairly obsessed with this forum and suggested that I join to get some advice on my flock, so here I am. I have one 6 month old lavendar guinea hen (Pete), I inherited 2 week old barred rock roosters that were being to aggressive to my mother's bantams (Bob & Bill), 6 golden 300 hybrid ducklings coming from efowl along with: 2 cayuga ducklings, 2 white golden ducklings, 2 black swedish ducklings and 3 "assorted" ducklings all due in 4/13. I have 11 mixed color indian runner duck eggs in the incubator (10 days and all have swimming embryos!), 8 guinea eggs are in the incubator (6 days and no progress yet), one loney spitzhauben chicken egg is in there too (6 days and looks promising). I also have a 3 year old boy (Sam), a 20 month old girl (Bri), and another girl (Kamy) due in June. My husband Brandon finds my birds amusing and likes to makes jokes about "nesting" but is an awesome sport about it all. I'm from New Hampshire, Brandon's from Idaho and were working on building our flock up here in New Hampshire. Now that you all know way more about my flock and family than you ever wanted to, how is everyone tonight?
