My first broody hatch a long!

[Ilovemychicks08]

It was a lot of hatches! and that was to just get 10 chicks to keep. LMAO!

I just used a pencil to mark them. The last group that I was going to put under a broody for a few days till room in the incubator opened up I put a big smiley face on them so it would be really easy to notice, but then they didn't go under my broody.

Ok thanks! I didnt have to mark this egg luckily.

I know. We are asking around im specifically looking for Silkies or Salmon faverolles. But i will do Brahmas, Orpington and cochins.

Wish I was closer. Not that I have silkies or SF, well I have hens but no roos.... But I have Cochins hens and roos.

Well she was super busy when we called and she said she would call us tomorrow with a exact amount of how many eggs she had and a time we could come get them!

My light brahma has been laying in the nesting box all day... So she is trying to brood to. They swapped boxes so now the Orpington is in a safer barely used box. And the brahma is in the always used box.

The lady will have 3 or 4 Mottled Cohcin Bantam eggs and 2 or 3 Lavendar Orpington eggs by Sunday! Right now she only has one Cochin laying as the other one just finished hatching chicks. So i should have them by Sunday!
