Thats just it-I really dont? I ave 6 acres but they are so screwy scattered-They free range all Spring Summer Fall-I dont hatch-I may let a broody do it this year. I have a huge double garage that DH let me take over on the property-and we have 2 coops outside too. I sold 2 hens and 8-10 4 week old chicks which I will deliver Monday so theres more room in Brooder I have huge brooder bins in kitchen and I clean top to bottom everyday to keep dust to a minimum-Its that or family will put me in a coop..We are expanding this Spring for the birds. All my neighbors love them... Yah I guess I can say Im lucky?

I am trying to help...you're just stubborn lol I already see now that you are NOT on your last hatch then...you trained your olive eggers to wait until this hatch is over and they will start laying again. LOL Have you put in any of your LF cochin eggs to test them?
