Official Squatch Watchers

well the 2nd cornish didn't zip more than a quarter of the way and stopped moving
The 3rd egg is just sitting there

So I debated about raising the 2 in a brooder but the moose is so active and jumping on the cornish. He needs some discipline and enrichment.. so I decided to see if the broody with one would take them. I put them in just before sunset... Content little trills and she is taking care of all 3 this morning

But the mama turkey was missing a poult this morning.. finally found it dead out of the coop about 20 ft away. The coop is 24 ft long and she was keeping them in the back part. It must have ran out out last night before lockup because it was soaked from the rains. I hadn't heard it peeping and didn't realize it was missing.

Moose and Cornish and Mama eating fermented feed
The other chick ran under Mama when I opened the door
The white Cornish has black leakage, but I don't care

Some white cornish hatch with wildtype down but mature to full white (possibly a little leakage). That looks like mild wild type markings to me.

This is the variety of colors that fairview01 gets on his whites. (borrowed pic from facebook).

Almost forgot, pics of the little girls. Not the best, they're speedy which is odd...but they're derps and demi derps so not really. First two are Dooneese.View attachment 1769093 View attachment 1769094Kim and Barb, Kim in front Barb behind.

Surprise! We decided to hatch 2 days before expected! 5 out. Several more pipped and peeping.

The nursery. There are 4 separate groups. And a 5 th in the garage.

My little stinkers. 4 Spitz and Bra Baby with a friend the same age. I'm in trouble. LOL

I seen that on FB and wondered if it was him. I think he keeps the best and sells the rest.

Yup. That is him. He is focusing on keeping dominant white.
