I have on egg in the bator that is growing that is a rosecomb. I hope it is a pullet. My friend has one RC pullet that same hatch with the cockeral. I think i am going to trade her some Orp hens for her if we decide to keep RIR's. You sure get attached to your flock. Hard to just let them go. My DH has a young cockeral he has got attached to that is not one I am planning on keeping for breeding as he is a SPlash/Buff Orp mix. We are having a hard time finding a place for him as he is so big and crowing and picking on the silkies so he go moved to another pen with a young black Orp cockeral. The Black boy was terrorizing him constantly so DH put him in with adult Orps. They don't bother him but at nite he just feels lost. When we get ready to go close the pens up he comes running when he hears us and follows us back to the big outdoor run and then we have to pick him up to go inside. DH calls him Sunshine.

Well, I look forward to seeing what else has hatched this morning.
Gwen, your little silkies are cutie pies. Don't forget they go through a very ugly stage before they turn into swans.
