I know this may seem like a silly question given where this is posted but...
We have just started with chickens this summer. We built a small coop and bought our first four hens, EE and SexLink, in June, thought this would be a good number for our family. None of us have any experience with chicks, we just thought it would be with the kids. Four months later we picked up five more chickens, Bantom Wyandottes. There are three hens, two red and one white, and two roosters, one red and one white. Can you ever have enought chickens?!?
Now that we have two roosters we are thinking about trying to hatch some of our bantom eggs. This is something we have NO experence or knowledge in. Money is not exactly just laying around our house right now and are not sure how much time, effort, and money we really need to hatch eggs.
Is it worth trying to scrap things together?
