Well, if I can keep Drekki Jr (my gorgeous Icelandic Roo) until January 12th, I'm going to try and do an Icelandic Hatch. I'll save all of my Icelandic eggs for two weeks and see what I end up with... I imagine I'll just use my Brinsea unless I have some Blue Wheaten eggs to hatch and then I'll add them.
I also did the Ornamental Layer Collection Order from McMurray to arrive on February 4th so it should be fun.
"We are now offering a special combination of chicks from our Rarest of Rare Assortment and Top Hat Special which will be FEMALE BABY CHICKS! Nothing like this is available anywhere else in the world! Imagine buying such things as Cochins, Campines, Red Caps, the exotic Polish varieties, and many many more in pullets only. Best of all: you can buy this ORNAMENTAL LAYER COLLECTION and save money! We are putting a special price on these female baby chicks much lower than what you'd have to pay to get them individually. We guarantee you at least 8 different kinds in each order of 25. If you are short of space, or don't like to hear roosters crowing but still want the most unusual of the world's exotic poultry breeds, try our ORNAMENTAL LAYER COLLECTION.s early as possible."
I imagine I'll end up selling the half of them that I don't want to keep and being 'rare breeds' I should be able to sell them easily.
With the 20 hens I have now, I'm only getting about 35 eggs a week. I don't know what to do to get them to start laying. Got 7 today, but 7 Mon & Tues. So 14 so far this week. (3 days)
My Icelandics are the best layers... of course I have more of them than any other breed.
