We're currently -6° with a "real feel" of -19°. Worst is coming Thursday, looks like.

Lots of pretty eggs and quite the variety! Best of luck with your hatch!

Thanks.

I went to collect eggs, and was playing with chicks, my LO hen decided to hop on my back as i was visiting others, I tried to shove her off. She thought..."Oh you don't want me on your back, how about I stand on your just washed head" Lucky everything is frozen, so no mud.

I have 7 chicks almost 6 weeks old...

Jubile orpington mix (Ducky) above, an silky mix (Fatty), and a AC/EE (Velvet.)


Below a cochin mix "Mica" He is spoiled! "Maxillion" AC mix skiddish. And a moving chick.

Lilac. Silky mix.

Don't get nervous about the lamp, only 60 W and nailed/chained in place.

So cute! What kind and how many? I'm incubating eggs for the first time right now

These were my first but then i had a hen go broody so i placed them under her. They are a barnyard mix, our rooster is an Ayam Cemani and this chick hatched from an easter egger.

Nolotus, my eggs are from Foxfire in ID. I am on day 12.

I'm not familiar with Foxfire. Could you enlighten me?

I'm actually a little embarrassed to admit I'm incubating eggs this time of year in high desert Idaho. Not really my decision but still....But I keep reminding myself that these chickens are a lot hardier than I give them credit for.

By the way, that's a awesome chicken in your avatar pic!
