My Hatching Journey: the Adventures of a Complete Newbie

[DwayneNLiz]

Ha! Zilch! Bators are clean and put away. I do have 2 broodies, but no one is laying, so they aren't on anything!

I was lol!!!! I can't believe they r put away, lol

 

[DwayneNLiz]

Uhhhh...... Ask me in 16 days!
Oh great.... You just reminded me of the two broodies in the coop. I'd break them, but the pen is in use.... Sooo.......

Throw some of the eggs from the bator under em unless they already have eggs??

But broody raised chicks are skittery, which makes them even harder to rehome.... Last batch sat on CL for almost a month before I finally got someone to take em.....And I'd have to keep them until the hens were done with em...... Decisions, decisions!

Refresh messed me up lol!

I'm really resisting.... I've got a ton of little ones right now, and none of the bantam girls are laying again yet, so only my large fowl girls are, and I have no desire to hatch any of them at the moment.

I really was hoping for more to hatch from my self blues, and I can get more eggs....but I'm resisting. I'm resisting. I'm resisitng.... Lol!

Take them away as soon as they hatch .Or after a couple of days won't hurt . and broody chicks don't grow as fast as brooder chicks .At least I don't think so

I can't do one for no reason...or just because its a male. But I do have a few little boys I need to get rid of. So hope it doesn't come to that.
