MARCH 2021 HATCH-A-LONG 🌷🌸🌼

May I ask where you ordered them from? We are wanting to start an American Bresse flock this year and looking for reputable sellers with high hatch rates, thanks!

I got them from someone in one of the hatching egg facebook groups I am in. I will message her and ask if I can pass on her info to you.

Your ducklings are precious. I hope baby #2 makes it.

Baby 2 was still fighting enough to get out of his taco. The little girl that was in the same state finally came around this afternoon. So six out of six that made it to lockdown hatched.

Holy moly these shipped eggs are serious about hatching. I’m in disbelief. I had one out and a pip this morning now all of a sudden I have 3 out and another 2 pips !!!

My eggs go into lockdown tomorrow evening. All eight are moving and looking good, though some still seem more developed than others. I’ve been swapping locations in my little (Janoel 12) incubator, so I’m not sure exactly why the discrepancies in their rates of development are persisting. My broodmare is looking closer, too. I’d say there’s a good chance I’ll be on both hatch watch and foal watch late this weekend. Might as well get all the sleeplessness over with at once, right?

The lady who has my frizzle avatar says she is laying again. I told her to let me know when she has 3 eggs and I am going to hatch them.

I have always wanted to try a couple of polish in my flock, but I was afraid the larger hens would be too aggressive with them. Someday I will give in.

You should give in soon. You're missing out I adore mine and I didn't think I would

Same here! I have two 9 month old polish pullets and now also a half polish/half silkie chick. I just love them, quirky and awesome personalities.

Yeah I totally thought I was gonna hate them. Told myself I was getting them because they're well liked. Nope they're well liked HERE. Haha
