lavender orpington hatching eggs

[RoosterML]

@mbrobbins I have a complaint about your Lavender Orpingtons. They are the messiest little buggers. I fill the feeder and they must have found something they really like because they empty the feeder out in no time with half of the food on the floor.
they are cute little things.

I have the incubator full of Silver-laced Orpington eggs at the moment. I may be picking up an incubator this weekend though so if I do that I will get back in touch with you. if not, I will have to wait until my current bator is emtpy.

lol, I hatched 18 for myself also, they are now 35 days old, and they do eat and trash their feed a lot, so I put their chick feeder inside a large tray, so what they spill still stays in one place and not under the shavings. I also tried putting some feed in a cat litter box, they can't scratch that out
