INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

[Chaos18]

I have about 100 right now. 68 of them are various breeds and they are all layers/pets... no judgements, they all have names. The rest are Welsummers, Marans, and Legbars. Those I'm working on developing breeding groups with. And then there's Duckie, she's my Pyr that protects them all.

Sounds like you've got a colorful bunch of girls. Ever do much incubating or do you let the girls do all the work?

I'm not sure if I posted or not, but the broody eggs (set 4) hatched on Wednesday. She hatched 100%. 5/5  Woke up this morning and heard one screaming in the coop. It got out of the nest and couldn't find it's way back. Guess at 2 days old they can't jump the 13 inches to get back in the box she picked.

That's great five new fuzzy butts

Not a thing, I was saying that you're wrong if you think you've said anything mean.

Both of my comments were separate thoughts.

LOL

Duckling is awake. All of your hopes of calling me after you were alone are now gone. I must go parent... Or something. I don't know what I am. One of you may beckon, but if you aren't sure whom...
Why do so many strange men have my number?

Have fun being the awesome parent you are. They probably have it because you gave it to them.

I have always loved the looks of the great Pyrenees but we have stuck with boxers for our breed of choice. Our current one is solid white and named snowflake, she was doing good with the livestock until we added a little ankle biter that my mother decided to gift to my daughter. Had to keep them separate ever since.

Well, thanks to my wonder family full of enablers, I've done both. I got a Brinsea incubator the last two years for my Christmas/birthday (December babies understand) present. I bought Welsummer and Legbars eggs from @dheltzel this January and hatched those (unintentionally on Valentines day). Last July I bought some Marans and two of them have gone Broody twice since January... crazies. So, they are now sitting on their second 'batch' of eggs. I'm expecting them to hatch during the week of June 6th.
