Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

If they end up not being the right leg color, they would look good with the EE's, overall it is very pretty!

yes, it is a very nice bird

I will never ever order hatchery chicks again. These wyandottes have not shut up. Well, not all of them but a few just do nothing but chirp. Everyone else is running around happily chirping and eating. They are driving me nuts.

I have had 53 quail hatch this morning. I think I have maybe 5 more that seem to be still moving and have pipped. Only have two that I don't think will make it. One that still has a lot of yolk externally, so if by tomorrow it isn't absorbed I will have to put it down.
Tomorrow 14 buff leghorns and 2 black Dutch go into lockdown. I will wait a week or two for the combs of the leghorns to grow in and sell all but a quad. Once I meet with Kraftyladies, I will have 25 cochin chicks to add to the brooder, which I will keep the colors I want until some feathers grow in, to check for vulture hocks. I am going to be overrun for a month or so. Husband is going to be sooooooo MAD when he comes home to 50 quail chicks. I never told him I was incubating them. This morning he asked if I had chicks hatching in my closet because he heard the peeping... But I know he is going to be POed to see how many. Oh well.

These are in my ebay watch list. I almost bid last auction, but they went for almost $50 a dozen. Leg coloring does look questionable, but if the price is right I would say its worth the risk. Here is a link for Ameraucana breeders, if you haven't seen it yet. A few breeders of whites. I did contact Wayne Meredith and he was good about a response. I believe he also does white. Hope this helps with the addiction.

50 quail only equal one chick. I mean, look how tiny they are.

Did anyone ever come up with a list of our "names" on the RBA site or eBay? I have wanted to bid on several things, but backed off when I thought I was bidding against someone here. I know we all have the right to go ahead and bid, but if we keep swapping, we will more than likely eventually get some of the offspring. I hate for us to be bidding each other up.... I know I am the same on RBA as I am here.... I know someone had mentioned needing a list, I just never knew if it materialized...

I was really interested on the Tolbunt that were listed on eBay. I do not know enough about them to know the variation in coloring and such, but their heads looked different to me. I also did not like the feedback rating.......

Definitely need this. I'm over there a bunch wondering if I'm bidding against others. My "handle" is different on RBA vs BYC. Right now I've got a bid on the 18 mixed eggs and white Bresse. I can take it or leave it on the Bresse. Blackbirds13 has a bid on the 12 mixed chicks....
