115 adults, 18 juvaniles, 41 chicks, and 88 eggs in the incubator - and more eggs than I thought still to come. You have to keep a close watch on the swap thread or you want 6 of everything..... and actually end up with them

If you haven't been there you have to go join the fun.... Also have peafowl and rabbits. Keeps me busy.....

I envy you, I really want some peafowl around here.

I've got a bunch of Marans too I'm itching to candle. But I also want to give them a week before I freak out and give them to the dogs... I'm conflicted. Maybe after I get home from errands.

I'm going to get a plastic sheet to put over the brooder in my mud room so that hopefully I don't get chick dust everywhere... think it'll work?

I have dif kinds and I cant keep dust at bay... I heard using sand in brooder works better ???????????? anyone???

I've penned mine up with a chain link roof for roaming and then they go into separate kennels at night. Lotsa work but its keeping them alive

not much yet. Dont know how! just when i see them i go out screaming lol!
