At worst I am down to 37 I would dare to say.

It is worst than I thought I am now down to 35 birds.
Despite the three that returned.

I still have hope for a few late arrivals.

I am so sorry. Did you lose a few more birds? Or did you miscalculate?

Wow i just cleaned out my breeders 6 by 8 coop and its a workout! But i dont think any of the others are sick. We got a couple tablets off of the very nice homing pigeon breeder and i got one down.

@Fields Mountain Farm have you decided on a loft plan yet?

@WVduckchick any news on the eggs!?

Just checked them at dark. No squabs yet. I noticed Clyde took his turn on the eggs today. Will he turn it over to her if they hatch during the day, or will he stay?

He will stay on it typically. What day Is it in incubation?

Today was 17.

In the morning there will be two little ones waiting! Do you plan to keep them or sell/give them away?

You think??
Pretty sure I’ll be keeping these, since I only have 2 pairs at the moment.

Today was 17.

From the first or the second egg ? I generally consider the second egg as day one; although, some pairs will start incubation with the first egg.

24 hours after the 2nd egg is what I was counting as day 1.

They may hatch tonight.
