yes!
I have too many chickens as it is.. have about 20 running loose still and I dont have big property like you guys.

I am still promising to sell the I have, she'd kill me if she found I was collecting more eggs... which is why I was going to hvae someone else incubate them. haha

My wife enjoys seeing the hens with their chicks, so I don't run the incubator much. I hear about it when I get the incubator out... Either way she still doesn't understand why I "need" more.

Update from wind...
My flypens/octagon fell over in the wind and some repair was needed... just a few uprights replaced, and reattached some hinges
My lattice patio roof blew off my aviaries.. repairable.
Ripped/tore red roof off Spanish game pens. replaced.
RIR nesting box/coop lid blew off.

Good news
No roosters were hurt or got loose.
and
I got about 300 fig tree cutting all rooting and growing new buds in plastic bags. Transplanted 20 last night.
Got some grape vine, olive tree and bonsai ficus tree cuttings all rooting as well. Fluff.

How long after the pullets start laying do your hens get started, without lights?

@JShubin, sorry to see the mess the wind made. Hopefully not too much damage, just a little clean up...
