If you don't mind me asking, what is your roo to hen ratio, and how old is your flock?

WV duckchick- I have more babies due tomorrow, but the dad was a blue frizzle one med. egg, one bantam. The big chick was 3 days old.

I have a LO egg under a hen that will hatch in 3 weeks if fertile.

I'm fairly new but in love with my Orpington. Two lines are currently breeding including Hinkjc line which I much prefer.

Thank you. I will tell him! Here he is today watching over the girls. My hen Roo ratio is currently 10 hens to one Roo. I started fairly recently 2014, so youngish flock. I am hatching their first babies out now. 90% fertility rate. When I began I bought from a number of farms and waited until they all grew out. I chose the best and gave most away.
