Hey, mohillbilly!!!!! How are you doing and how is the chicken gathering coming along? I hope everything is going great!

I hope you're encouraging someone else to get eggs and not me, LOL!

I really like it. The only comment made about it that I would disagree with is I like the color it is now!

These are my youngest babies, about 1 wk old. All of them have been eating out of my hand all day. Love it. 2 Blue Cochin, 1 EE 3 Silky.

I don't know if this is just me but I think I was more excited for my chicks to hatch than my duck and I don't know why. Maybe because I already know what they will look like or what and chicks are all different than ducklings.

Well, some of it is not just you. I don't get very excited over hatching chicks either. The first time I hatched I was glued to the incubator day and night and couldn't drag myself away. Now, by the time I go look in the incubator it's like oh, one hatched. I think I've killed so many it's taken the fun out

B J Hopkins, is that a bantam Ameraucana you have there or large fowl?
Adorable chicks. I just hatched my first ever bantam cochin. It's tiny. The silkie hatched first and it's in there picking on that poor little fellar!
