Opa, my welsummer pullets should be laying soon, can't wait to see the beautiful eggs. Since I have delawares, Ams, and one speckled sussex I think a dozen eggs are really going to be pretty. Maybe I should get a white egg layer too...

Taprock that is one major molt, although she does look like someone was plucking her for the stewpot and got interrupted!

The babies have hatched!

One Delaware and one Delawegger [del x EE]

Soooo cuuuuuttte!

My broody is on day 19 and I can't WAIT to see little fuzzy butts!

Do I see little muffs on the Delewegger?

I've promised the kids a few more EEs next spring. We have a couple light OEs from our EE/BA accidental cross. I'd like to get a couple dark layers and a couple leghorns. It's not cost effective to have too many for the colors, but it is fun just for us.

Babigyrl, what kind do you have hatching? Be sure to post pics.

Olive, I love having the different colors in my egg carton. I think that one does have muffs!

Raz, that was some breakfast!

Keyt, congrats on the new grandbaby!

FBCM! They are from the eggs I hauled back from San Diego. Hand carrying them through security was a hoot! It's my broody's first time so I don't have high expectations but I know the ones (4) she is sitting on were all moving around on day 10. The ones I was not so sure about I put in the incubator (also my first time). So it's all up in the air. So I could have 2 or 8 ....who knows.

I will definately post pictures.

It's my broody's first time too. She went broody just 3 weeks after laying her first egg!

Good luck!

LOL...wow. So no you know what your in for with that one. One of my silkies....who took soo extra long to lay a stinking egg is now broody. I think I may have gotten 5 eggs from her and now she is held up in the nest box. The other silkie decided it was a good time to molt (her fluffy tail....gone). Blueberry is sitting on eggs and the other two bantams havent started laying yet. So no cute bantam eggs for me.
