I'm still treating them for scaly leg mites. Pretty sure the mites are dead, just need another round of petroleum Jelly to help moisten the scales.

It would be nice if they would shed the old scales now.

It would. Thinking they're too dry for an easy shed.

I've got 3 eggs from the JungleFowls that I'm gonna hatch. This is a test hatch to see if these came from the quad, or if they were mixed with someone else.

My pretty Black Malay cockerel. I gotta catch him crowing on camera. It's sounds abit robotic.

Goliath isn't feeling like breeding right now due to his spring molt. He does this every year. Molts in the spring, & fall.

1, Blue Face/Oriental Cross(1 egg)

1, Red JungleFowl/Sumatra(1 egg)

1, Silkie/Brahma X Silkie(1 egg)

The Blue Face/Oriental Cross laid this monster yesterday in front of me. She can't just lay one sized egg. She's given me large, jumbo, & this Colossal.

She's a small hen, by the way, just a tad smaller then a Leghorn.

Getting the incubator prepared. It got sanitized yesterday. Now I just need to calibrate, & sanitize the thermometers, & hygrometers.
