I have 1 female Pekin and 1 femlae Indian runner. But I think from the size of the eggs they are from the Pekin. I have 2 males. 1 male is a Cayuga. 1 male is a Welsh Harlegquin. Not sure what is going to hatch out.

I should say I think the 1 male is a Welsh Harlegquin.

I only have one hen who loves bugs... Rosie, my retired production red. She will come running for a Japan beetle or stink bug. The other girls act scared, although I have seen them turn into a flock of raptors when they find a frog or a mouse!
I am waiting to hear that Dennis has hatched Welbars. This maybe the year for ducks, but
I want a pond first and a scarecrow that will intimidate hawks!

Getting lots of Welbar eggs now. 9 today from 13 hens, not bad for February! I should have plenty of pullet chicks available starting next month.

I’m jealous of you guys getting eggs.
I just finished looking back at all of my flock history from 8 years. I’ve never had pullets take so long to start laying. I’m still not expecting the older two (year old) to begin for two weeks. I think my girls hate me. They are only pretending to like me for the treats.

Something has occurred to me. I don’t use Purina anymore. Are you guys feeding name brand or Dumor?

I get mine from a mill. It’s cheaper.

I just feed the grower mash that they whip up at the feed mill lol

I go to the feed mill

We get nutrena or buckeye at the feed mill, nothing special, and we always have a feeder with oyster shells available.

Mindy got possum #3 for the year.. you would think the possum population would learn to avoid our little corner of the world but guess they aren't very bright.
