I have 2 out and a bunch of pips..

We are off to church for family night, so I am sure when we get home more will be out.

SCM.. Happy Hatching !!! Ummm.. I'll take any leftovers

Are the cochin LF or bantam ? What kind of incubator did you get ? I am excited for you!!

NH... you don't eat ribs

Are you a vegertarian (spelling?) ? bon bons & egg are peanut butter or pecan... I can't decide what I like better. We need to make & sell 2500. We already have lots of orders so hopefully we sell them all.

Off to church...

Hey Beth, I have 17 cochin eggs (bantam) cookin in the bator right now if you're looking for some... Should have plenty available as I am only looking to keep a few.

Mine are LF! So sounds like you're covered! Well... if mine hatch anyway! I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I got the ReptiPro 5000! I made the modifications so that it should be great for baby chicks and just need to get some extra thermometers/hygrometers to make sure I'm where I need to be. So far the thing seems awesome! And I have the perfect spot for it for optimum hatch viewing!!! Can't wait to see your new chicks, Bhep! And HT, what colors of bantam cochins? They are sooo cute - I love them! I swear, I just want one or two of everything!!!

My eggs should produce lavenders, blue & black mottles, mille fleurs, lemon blue, white, and I think some frizzle and maybe a couple of other colors. Should be an interesting hatch that day, I think I will probably be glued to the hatcher watching what color hatches next!

Oh wow! How fun!!! I can't wait to see them! My mix is silver laced, golden laced, black, splash, and blue. I REALLY hope that I get a laced girl!!! They are so gorgeous! I wish you were closer and interested in doing a swap - it would be fun to have both big and small! How much longer till your guys hatch??

Need to see pics, Bhep!!!

I'm so jealous of all of these baby chicks! `Tis the season and I have sworn off chicks unless hen hatched ever again!

Shut. it!


Tell you what, you brood them for me in that lovely way that you do and make them all sweet and lovable and friendly and then I will take them when they don't need a light any more.

See, you know you can pick on me now because I can no longer threaten you with leaving chickens on your door step!

Pretty!!! I do miss my silkies. *sigh* I need some good egg layers, though and silkies were never that for me. They were just for looks.
