I will be hatching buffs & can ship if need be.
I will keep that in mind Silkie thank-you. I'm still hoping for the Pilgrims...I like the idea of the white blue eyed drake, and buff female's.
2 of my EE's had never laid since hatch last April. Today I came home to my first true blue egg & a pink egg (the 2 in the middle). Can't tell you how excited I was!!

I just set 54 eggs. 54. Fifty four. My husband is in the process of trying to not have a litter of kittens while driving through Pa. Bwahaha. Now if the power doesn't go out I should be good. for a while....
Well, I am pretty sure I SWORE I would NEVER tetris stack again as it was a very stressful hatch having a top layer of eggs in my Octagon 20. In fact, I think I just said that yesterday.
