This is where I will monitor my hatches. It will give me a place to keep photos of changes as they feather out and hopefully develop some understanding of genetics.

The Cornish cross x from the second hatch is already larger than the normal chick from the first hatch. They all look to be cockerels to me, I was hoping to have at least one pullet, maybe from the next hatch.
