Here are the two I have so far, as far as I can tell, I have the other 2 eggs due on Sunday or Monday.

Romeo here has a nice beard like his papa!

and Juliet has a solid white spot on her head... moms a barred rock so I sooooo hope she'll be another little hen for me!

Nothing yet... I keep staring into the bator willing them to hatch, not so much as a pip, but I'm not giving up hope! They were technically due tomorrow so I've got my fingers crossed!

Well I went in and popped the end to see if they needed help, but it was more like... um... cosmic goo... very stinky cosmic goo... I was trying to candle those 2 eggs but her shells are insanely tough. They passed early, so there was no distress... the bator is reset and BLRW eggs from Gretchen are going in!!!

Good luck with your BLRW eggs! Hope they do well for you!

HI ALL!
A guy in middlesex advertised on craigslist with a few interesting pairs/trios of bantams if anyone is interested, prices are about 10$ a piece, sounds like he shows them? I think someone on here lives out that way? I advertised on there about a month ago for the first time and am pleasantly surprised but home many replies I've gotten from people, I have all my extra roosters sold and about 5 people who want to buy fertile eggs from breeding pairs I have this spring! Good way to make some feed money in addition to the eggs I sell at work

I've been sick and haven't been on here much! Hope everyone is doing well! DH got me a brochure from countrymax out our way for their annual chick week, I wasn't too happy with their selection though, am still trying to decide if I should order chicks this year or what.... ugh!

We got our first two turkey eggs this week from the one remaining Bronze hen I have left, I wonder if I should try to pop one in my aunts incubator, there is a chance my Bourbon Red Tom mated with her. I just sold them with the eggs I sell at work, they were cool to see for the first time though!

yayy to the fuzzy butts it almost makes me want to order some now but I'm trying to wait till spring when my hens go broody to see if they hatch some eggs for me!

wow! I am amazed at all the new offerings on craigslist in the last 2 weeks I've been too sick to look, a guy has fertile pheasant eggs on there and they look amazing!!!! someone else has geese and ducks, I really recommend you guys looking on their, I know someone on here wanted more ducks!

<-----going to go waste another hour on craiglist and drink some coffee. HAPPY VALENTINES DAY EVERYONE!

Hello!!!
At least you got 2 gorgeous babies out of that hatch!!! Sorry the other 2 weren't viable.......it happens quite often. It's sometimes hard to candle brown or green/blue eggs. I wish you much luck with all the BLRW eggs.....hoping all of them hatch for you!!!
A Happy Valentine's Day to everyone!!!!!!
