Mahonri's 2nd Annual BYC EASTER HATCH. Post pics of your chicks!

[debilorrah]

I still need someone to tell me what eggs to hatch for this. I am highly conflicted. I want to save money, but I want pretty birds. I had a gift of eggs to help rebuild my flock and one of them is a GORGEOUS Orp Splash. I could do that, but does anyone have any??

So. Tell me what to do. Please.

halo and onthespot have some pretty birds, if they haven't sold them yet for that week.

What breeds? Ken was specific they have to be breeds we can sell the chicks. Well not specific, but that is my interpretation.

Bobcat? Oh dear. We have coyotes here and I do believe we have finally rearranged everything enough so they have no access.

Yep, took an Ameraucana several weeks ago, though I got the hen back, she was severely injured, so I had to put her down. Ever since then, the bobcat has been stalking our pasture and yard, hasn't taken anyone else, but. . . I've yet to capture or kill it. Gonna call someone to trap it and move it tomorrow though.

for a success!!!!

Ugh. You are gonna make me... I thank you for that.

Splash Orps because that Randi chick is just too cute a feisty.

Silkies because I cannot seem to get any to survive and I am a glutton for punishment.

Wheaten Ameraucanas because they rock.

Polish. Any Polish.

Thank you

I don't have great Silkies. They aren't bad, but so many here have such good ones.

I have 4 colors of AMs, but don't have Wheatens. I have to many other breeds that are similar.

Let me think.
