Hennyhandler is cleared to swap again!

I wish I had room in the incubator for them! My RP started laying this week and I am going to have to find someone to set them for me to test the fertility.

ME! I will GLADLY donate some incubator space for fertility check!

Ok, thanks!

No, the SFH have been doing fine. If only I could get them to up the production to match the demand.

However, I do also have some BBS Orps that started laying this week that I need to fertility check also. I have chicks running around from that coop, but these are new layers and I want to make sure the roo is getting to ALL the girls.

I volunteer!!

Splash Orp. rumpless?

Is she from my eggs? Some of mine take forever to grow in their tails.

I have found my orps do this too....they look so funny running around without a tail.

Yes she is. Maybe that is the problem! The others I had grew them right away. This little one looks funny with no tail!

Okay, need quick advice. 20 or so 10 week olds, just put them outside today. In the 20s tonight, 30s tomorrow but suppose to start getting in 40s during the day and 30s at night. They've been without heat in our basement for a few weeks now. They are in a large wooden doghouse, completely draft free. Eaves are open for ventilation but hard wired. Heat lamp or let them tough it out? They are feathered. Need opinions quickly since it is getting dark.

when in doubt always go with a heat lamp- its better to be safe than sorry.

Pretty!!! I'm hoping to get to pictures tomorrow. Frighteningly enough I've been flat out all week (and still don't seem to have gotten a thing done!) but I'm hoping by tomorrow afternoon to be caught up, at least for a few minutes lol!
