July Hatch-a-Long (including 4th of July hatch-a-long)

I love Polish anything. They're so freaking cute!

I want to try bantam Brahma with Polish but my Polish is quite the prude

So is one of my Barred Rocks, at least that is easier to deal with than the broody plague.

My broody plague is almost over I think. Most should hatch this weekend and next weekend

I have no idea what I am even going to set for this hatch. Probably just stick with homegrown and my quail should be laying by then, I hope.

I’m waiting for quail eggs any day now. I knew I wanted an Independence Day hatch before I even set these quail eggs.

I’m hoping I get some quail eggs from my aviary

I just hatched out some polish silkies. Just can’t really tell which ones they are yet. But I got lots of cute colors. I hatched them with pure silkies and other silky crosses so it’s hard to tell them apart until they get a little bigger.

I have a silkie pullet and my Millie Fleur is trying to mate with her. I wonder what that combo would look like. Maybe I’ll find out for July if Chubs starts laying eggs.

Set 46 eggs last night. Some experiment eggs that I got from a friend who got them from a farm so we don’t know what or if they will hatch but they were some huge eggs. Also some mottled Java’s and some silkie surprise. All my bird are back together now so I have bantam Cochin, polish, faverolles and dark Brahma bantam with the silkies and I only have silkie roosters so it’s going to be interesting!

That could be very interesting!

If she starts laying I’ll set her eggs in the bator.

Do all white silkies get the blue on them? Mine has gorgeous blue on her face and feet.
