This is the thing I miss about using a broody,being able to see what is going on...hoping your hatch goes well!

I am so freaking intoxicated. I think I will pass out before too long. They will all be out before I wake.

I'm sorry you lost another one. I hope the last one grows up and gets a chance for revenge on that cat!
I have seen turkey hens when they are upset and I'm sure it would scare the cat so bad he'd think 3 times before coming into your yard. The noise they made was straight out of Jurassic Park, I thought they were gonna kill something.

I got a totally unexpected pullet egg today I guess I've kinda lost track of how old my young ladies are. It has to either be from one of my Rhodebar girls or one of the SPR girls. Any guesses? I honestly forget exactly when I got them and how old they are lol. Time to look back in the old calender...if I can find it.

My poults are selling out almost as fast as I can hatch them. Most of last week's hatch goes to their new homes tomorrow and the rest on Saturday. I have 27 more eggs due to hatch Friday and I believe they're all sold too lol. I even had a lady who put in an order for poults ask me if I had any colored egg layers and if I'd hatch some for them. They don't care that they'd be mixed breed and they want 10-12 of them so I've been collecting all week to set on Friday lol.

I think everyone is finally getting in chick mode around here.

Could very likely be the SPRs, especially if it is the small beige one in the middle, that looks like our pullet eggs and they should be 20-22 weeks about now....

Their hatch was mid September, this is their group at one or two days old, pic including says 9/16 for date.

And I snapped their picture on Friday way to meet you...
