HOW IS EVERYONE DOING?

Mine are all good. I went out and weighed them and my biggest is 2 3/4 oz(2 EEs), and the smallest is 1 1/4 oz(DorkingX). Yes, you heard right, I weighed them. I went out there with my kitchen scale and an old butter tub.

I also have a broody sitting on golf balls. I have 41 eggs in the bator set for 3/16. Also have 25 chicks ordered for the same day from Welp Hatchery.
Eggs: 12 storebought, 23 from my hens, 2 OEGB, and 4 Dom.
Chicks: 5 Asst Std Cochin(F), 10 Asst White Eggers(F), and 10 Wheaton Penedesenca(st.run)
All of them

And my broody, MsFuzzy

What beautiful chicks! Congrats on such success!! I went and grabbed a few of our Banty hens that were left over from the sale and have them in small dog carriers, bedded and sitting on some Sex Link eggs which they seem to be taking too

and a bunch of Maran eggs in the Hovabators (2) and nothing in that cursed LG bator!!

out of 17.... 13 hatched. lost one the day after it hatched and just lost a tiny little serma last night. poor thing.

BUT.. all my others are doing well and they seem to like the sav-a-chick i put in the water, reminds me of poweraid. don't wanna lose anymore.


i now have 41 eggs in the bator, 2 in a mini dome bator and 8 under my broodies...my momma's take turns...each day there is a different mom on my eggs.



they were all put in the bators at 9 am on the 1st, so i should lockdown on the 18th and hatch around the 21st.................... i think?
