Mahonri's 2nd Annual NYDHatch, watching them grow...

[superchemicalgirl]

Well I struck out with getting eggs shipped to me (seriously, 2 people did not even respond to my requests - what did I do wrong?)

I'm going to try to call local people today but I'm still in with my own mutt eggs - turken mix dad and 32 random mommies.

It'll be my first hatch!!!

 

[Mahonri]

Well Pink Chick... stay tuned... wish you were hatching with us!
_______________________________________________________________________________________
A repost so it's easy to find... close to the top of page 11.

So, the plan for most of us is to put the eggs in at NOON (Local time) on Saturday, December 11th, 2010.
Here is the web clock we all need to use to syncronize our computers
Atomic Clock it's close to within 2 seconds AND you will probably have to change the time zone, but it's easy.

That said,


OK here is the lastest "Official list" if you don't see your name on it and you are a part of the NYD hatch PM me

Cool... and we all know that mutt mixes can sometimes be the most beautiful chickens as we've seen so far on this thread.

If we weren't so cold here I'd offer to send you some Blue Andalusian eggs but I'm afraid they would arrive frozen!

 

[pinkchick]

Stay Tuned???? Heck yah!!!!!
Wouldn't miss it for the world!
This BYC place and all the BYC'ers kinda ROCK BIGTIME in my opinion!!!!!

 

[abhaya]

Are you trying to get me hooked on another breed of Blues?????????

Ohhh, I wish I had the space, believe me, but DH would likely string me up. I just don't understand why he thinks that 158 chickens is more than enough, plus I have 26 eggs in lockdown that he didn't know about until yesterday when he saw me readying the hatcher and an extra 'bator so I could seperate them for hatch.... oops.......

 

[Mahonri]

Ah, chicken math!!!

no never that...

, just do like I am-it's a "test" hatch! but you do have more birds then we do!!! Currently we have around 25 with a "limit" of 40 in the coop(DH forgot to count the 2 pens in the heated garage- probably can fit 10 up there)

Once it gets warm we do have a protective area outside-it's just winter time that we have to get number down.
