Hi,
My name is suzy I am from Norfolk in UK, I started out keeping few chickens to get the eggs and have now got into breeding them. I have been using this site for last few weeks since getting more into breeding so thought really should join.
I have raised some chicks from fertilised eggs (low hatch rate as didn't have special brooder boxes) and then also put some chicks user my Broodys and they have raised them.
I have pekings, silkies and hybrids and raising some Aracuna chicks to.
Today I hatched my first chick in my incubator which has come from an egg from my hens, another 70 incubating and being added to daily.
Hubby probably thinks I am mad but has gone along with it and built
me a specific shed for rearing and brooding.
Hoping the kids get to see the next hatchling though.

I have dated them all and then move them into the hatching incubator at 18 days
