I am glad you are here. Best of luck with you hatch.I haven't been on BYC forever, but I finally have the courage to try baby chicks again. I have had terrible luck apparent Marek's, losing most of my chickens and all of the chicks from the feed store last spring.I almost gave up on chickens all together, but decided to try hatching my own eggs from the surviving hens.
I set 29 on 1/12/13:
- a dozen white leghorns from a farmer in my neighborhood
- eight barnyard mixes, roo is barred rock, hens are barred rocks and red sex links
- 9 of my own, grey Andalusian mix roo, with FBCM hens, barred hen and EE hens.
