Yep... but didnt want to take away from mama... I moved some coops around to try to give them better coverage and impede hawks path. but Now I know I need full coverage...

You didn’t want to take them away from the hen? Even though you were losing a chick a day?

So true, but I enjoy seeing the next round of little ones each spring.

I do too. That’s the best part of it all. I have a broody pullet sitting on 5 black eggs but that’s it.

roughly one a day. Had 6.
i was hoping for a survivor or two.. which usually happens when other siblings are taken. Usually they are bit more cautious, this bunch seemed oblivious to danger, maybe from sheltered early life.. or these Cuban genetics.

Here you go sdm, I hope you can read it.

No worries.. I'll be ready next hatch.

Yeah dumbass chicks. I hate it when they can’t ward off a hawk attack at a week old. Damn weaklings.

 

[jonservidio]

hawk took all my American/Cuban chicks. They have nest on property.

might be a blessing in disguise.
It's tough enough to get good ones breeding Spanish to Spanish, or American to American.
