Thanks- just PM when you want some!
Awesome!!!Here's a little snippet of my crowing chick. Had to mess with the color as it was DARK in the room and my cell takes lousy videos. I cut out a long period of him walking around doing the rooster 'wing flap'. Seems each morning when I turn the lights on he crows a few times then I never hear it again.. had to be quick.
Yes, that is Peanut Butter. He turned out much better than I ever had hoped. Another favorite here. His combh ad a rough winter as well. Here are pics of him as a 4 month old-County Boy,
Is this Peanut Butter? I think he is by far my favorite! As always, your bird pictures are absolute eye candy.

I missed this somehow, my office will be the perfect location then. I'm the only one who spends any time in here and when I do it's to sit my butt down and work.The office is the room I use. It stays at least 70* , but I can also add heat by hanging a 250 heat light in here. You also want a room that is closed off and does not get a lot of traffic. You should be able to find one for that amount easily, if you don't buy a turner, but you will eventually.
My thing is I'm never guaranteed a good hatch or fertile eggs. So if I set too many or too few I won't get what I need. Plus right now I've chicks I don't want. I'm working on getting more Lavs EE's.
No one around here will buy chicks so I sell them cheap or trade or give them away. Which reminds me I need a chain saw. Nothing big or fancy or to take down huge trees. I can't cut 4" to 6" around trees by hand.
My chicks are not even a week old and some of them are scratching around in the shavings. I put my hand down in the brooder with some food on it and one of the chicks hopped into my hand and scratched around a bit. They are also "roosting" on top of the feeder. I often catch a couple of them perched on the edge of the feeder sleeping...they grow up so fast
