OH it is a lovely sunny day...finally. I'm playing hooky at home and I let the girls out to free range, much to the dismay of the lawn....
Incubating...well it's been a very rough road for this batch - did I post that I just ordered the king suro 20??? and a very cool candler. I'm going for it!
The SLW gave up however I have two sicilian buttercups that are huge!!! woohoo. Doesn't look like much of anything else, but I'll wait and check again just before lockdown.
I'm trying to pick what I want to set on April 26. I have a biz trip so when I return I'll try again. These are the breeds I'm considering - just 2 eggs of each. ANY OPINIONS??
BLUE AMERAUCANA
AMERAUCANA/ARAUCANA hybrid
BLUE BIRCHEN MARAN
GOLDEN CUCKOO MARANS
BUFF BRAHMA STANDARD
BARRED ROCKS
WHITE ROCKS
SILVER LACED WYANDOTTE
SPECKLED SUSSEX
BARNEVELDER
WHITE ORPINGTON
AUSTRALORP
BUCKEYE
DELAWARE
JAVA
NEW HAMPSHIRE
FRIZZLES
I'll also be working on converting this "spa shed" into another coop that can sit at the end of our run. I plan to divide the run in half so the new girls can see the older, wiser girls. It's 3' x 4.5' and built really well, a new roof, a new floor, windows and doors, ramp nest boxes, perches...oh hmmm I thought this sounded easy!!!
But it will be fun
