July 2021 Hatch-A-Long

Forest fire by my house is scaring me a bit- I am having a friend come to adopt my 13 chicks I hatched last month.

Take care! I hope it isn't too close

That is scary! Are you evacuating then?

We lost one of our 6 that hatched on the weekend. I think I'm down to just one female cream legbar, and she is quite small and not a sure thing to survive yet :/ Those darn roosters look great though. Maybe one of the mosaics will be a hen. I know it's very normal to lose a chick or two, but I'm always quite sad the day they go.

Stay safe in the fire areas.

First baby Cream Legbar to hatch and it's a girl!!! So excited. She's at least a day early. I set them under my broody buff Orpington on the evening of June 30th so calculated hatch date to be 21st to 22nd of July. Nope. This little girl was in a hurry.

Just got home from picking up Bullet's hatching eggs. We ordered a half dozen but the person there threw in two extra for us.
So final egg count:
6 Olive Eggers
1(maybe 2) Easter eggers
Maybe 1 Frizzle

They were sold out of BCM but I'm hoping the Frizzle will hatch. Bullet has her work cut out for her.
