Another Ohio Welcome here! Congrats on the new feathered babies...and the one in the oven

Scottland Eh? Have some acquaintances that live way up in the Isle of Louis...would love to see that place someday.

This is a great forum. I've been following it for about a year and half before I ventured into my own "chick-escapades" LOL. They are a ton of fun. Post pics of your new little ones and we'll have a good time trying to guess what they are as they grow. I've never "hatched" eggs before but I would imagine that the place you bought the eggs might have some inclination as to what breed they came from.

Take care and good luck!
