INDIANA BYC'ers HERE!

So far I ended up with 4 Bielie pullets and 1 Bielie male and 6 Isbar/Bielies! I still have 3 EE/Bielies and 3 Bielie eggs still in the incubator. It is day 23 today, when do you guys pull them? Is it normal to have a big group hatch and then a long wait for the rest?

Overall it has been fun and the coolerbator did well. I had some issues figuring out how to get the humidity right, but I think I have that down now. My next group will go into lockdown on Thursday!
 
Just saw this on a Pillsbury ad -- gotta make these for Easter! Bunny butt cookies

@Mother2Hens

Penelope is doing fine. She hasn't had any lingering issues with her self-healed bumble foot. She has gone into a late molt with the cold spells, so she looks a bit less fluffy than usual. She hasn't been at the top of the order for a long while now - the big RIR has that job, second to the roo of course.

Thanks for asking! How's your flock doing?
 
@kittydoc I spoke with a lady that does horses around here. in her opinion horse people don't place a lot of value on chickens so maybe "bid" low and just stay in contact with him. The horse lady I talked too insisted there was no chicken worth $20 or more.
@kittydoc Are the chickens you're referring to actually Imported English Orpingtons or American-English (I made that term up - lol) Orps?

My BR Tweedy rules outside the coop (day duty), and my SLW Lacey rules inside the coop (night duty). My EE Roadrunner wants so badly to be in the cool-girl leader clique!
Our 75 degree sunny day yesterday was wonderful! I'll still take today's 55 degree sunny and windy day. Anything beats snow!
