Gosh, I was right in the past, then. Time flies when it isn't YOUR hatch, LOL! Cool!!! I think I'll add that to my sig line since it was my line anyway and I'm about to start a hatch in about two weeks.
Oh, Amanda, one of my 5 yr old Barred Rock hens, the huge girl, started laying again yesterday! AND, Tom said he saw Isaac mating her! Guess he just doesn't like Fern or Fern's daughter, Barbara...or Becca, Amanda's sister, who are all smaller hens than Amanda. Amanda is fully as large as the show quality BR pullets, even though she comes from McMurray parents. I've always been amazed at her size for a hatchery descendent. Maybe he'll like the bigger BR girls hen. I hope!
