oooohhhhh! I have been so excited for your hatch! Grey eggs! I mean, come on, so cool!!!
 
I'm in also, down to 11 eggs from 18. Mostly infertile,2 blood rings on the very first eggs from one of my girls. That's to be expected.

If anyone wants backyard mix eggs and is local, I'm more than happy to supply, no charge. My backyard mix would be red Dorking, silkie, possibly buff or white Ameraucana. I do have my buff hen in the mixed coop, waiting for her to wear out the fertility from the last rooster.
what are your Red Dorking mixed with?

I have a red Dorking pullet, I think I got her first egg the other day. I have a red Dorking/buff silkie pullet, then I have a silver grey Dorking/buff silkie hen who lays like a champ...and hides in walls to avoid me taking her eggs. I have a red Dorking cockerel over the red Dorking mixes, but he hasn't even crowed yet. I'm hoping to be breeding him this spring. So no guarantees on fertility out of that pen.
My buff Ameraucana hen may still be fertile from my White Ameraucana rooster. Their babies come out in pretty shades of blue and black. I've got her in the hen house. She is getting put with a buff Ameraucana rooster in a week and a half.
 
Hang in there Uglyfoot, I put in eggs from my barn, the same age as what I gave you and they are hatching. Plus I thing we put them in late the 22nd...

@UGLYFOOT did you say you had more serama incubating?


Not at this time, I can after the Easter HAL. I want to baby that hatch along. I just have to get thru the ones that are hatching right now. Then will not add till after the Easter ones get done, unless I get a replacement shipping of Silkie/Showgirl then I won't have a choice. If that happens then I will add Serama if I can get them. She is pretty full with orders right now. I would have to reserve them, which is what i planned for after Easter.

If you are wanting some when I do put them in let me know. Anyone else wanting then, please let me know. That way I can get an idea of how many to buy.
