I nearly went into withdrawals while the site was down this morning. lol! Those were my prime BackyardChicken forum hours.
I put my Mottled Orpingtons, Crested Cream Legbars, and Whiting's True Blues on early lockdown today because after final candling the Legbars air cells are already changing shape like they're going to hatch so I bet I'll see some peeps on day 19-20!
My final count on lockdown is 10 Mottled Orps, 4 CCLs, and 3 WTBs!
Started with 33, 11 infertile, 5 quitters. I was told to expect 50% fertility with the Orps though so I'm still happy!
Fingers crossed that all 17 peeps hatch successfully!
