Should I buy eggs or wait it out?

Lindz I looked back and I just don't know. I need to see a more straight on view of the head with a close up shot of the comb....I just don't know.

Ok..... I went through the calendar and figured out ages again.

The 3 new pullets are 5 months old.

The golden cuckoo Marans, blue cochins and the Sal Fav are 16-17 weeks.

The 4 from Harriet's first brood are 11 weeks.

The younger incubator group are almost 7 weeks.

And then Harriet's new brood should start hatching tomorrow.

The ages of your flock is well staggered. Eggs ... eggs... and more eggs.

Yes unfortunately most of the ones hatched here are turning out to be cockerels. The good thing is that all the new marans, cochins and the Sal Fav are pullets. Plus one of Harriet's first brood, and at least one of the incubator babies. I'm hoping for a better ratio with the ones hatching this weekend. Guess I need to go let them out and see if wehave any chicks yet.

Lindz... hoping for chicks for you today!!

My pullets are 22 weeks old now. I am thinking next month sometime the Ameraucanas will lay.

Any guesses on the day??
Minnie Pearl....


Little Bit.......
They are both very pink, but not red.

Since the girls don't get free range today, they get extra PIE! Grapes, a little corn and grated carrots.

No chicks yet. Everyone is enjoying free ranging and Hubby mowed so they are all over the yard. Lots of sunshine and they are stretched out soaking up the rays. Hope that means lots of eggs tomorrow!
