Okay, i figured out a cure!
Setp 1: buy more lots
Step 2: hatch more chickens
Step 3: Cull
Step 4: Profit

No. I am not one who can murder a chicken. I just can't do it. So i wouldnt hatch any we were planing to eat.

Is there a way to encourage hens to go broody? I love my brahma (shes like my chicken bff) and would like to get her to try her hand at it. Any ideas?

OK, humidity holding well and regulating appropriately now, no more funny noise, and I have calmed down. I thought I was going to be so COOL about this hatch - nope. Let's see how many times I freak out during lockdown....

Meanwhile, @Sally Sunshine you wanted photos. I finished the new coop today, and moved the Naked Necks in this evening. They are a little freaked and huddled on the floor of the run in a corner in a pig pile (that's how they've been sleeping in the tractor). They'll be grumpy kept in there for a few days to "learn" it's their new home, since they're used to roaming a lot, but it is pretty nice in there. I assume they'll figure out that they have a sheltered henhouse with roosts eventually.

Still have lots of cleaning up of stuff in the yard, and I need to start building tractors now (growout for the chicks) and some A-frames (for solo roosters). But it's nice to get it done. And Dumbledore is back outside with his girls - his tail feathers are growing back out. I don't have it in me to set up the brooder right now - I'm about to drop. I'll set it up after work tomorrow...



Busy week at work next work. I just know I'll be a wreck while at work worrying about the hatch/chicks - I can't take off to watch them. I just need to have faith - what will be, will be...

I'm going to try to do a read back of the stuff I missed before heading to bed.
