Gah, tell me about it. I bought the hovabator 1588 with my tax return. Thinking yes this is what I need for the best hatches since I'm going to be paying a good ammount for these special eggs. So disappointing.

I was going to get the eggs directly from her too, so maybe I'll just bite the bullet and buy pullets from her instead!

My pullet (she's the one that has a brain issue) hatched her 4 turkey babies perfectly and is now being such a good new mother, feeding her chicks and being protective of them, even though they're not even her species

that's what I love about these birds, they're so accepting of any babies, even if they're not their own. The babies are soooo cute. The two brownish ones were quite a surprise, so far I've only hatched white chicks from my pair (hen is a royal palm, tom is a red bronze, created by a royal palm/bourbon red cross). I love their tiny fuzzy snoods

I was thinking would a fan sitting behind a block of ice be like chicken air conditioning?? Lol. If the weather gets hot enough I'm going to do it, I'll take pics haha.

Wow.. you guys are so busy here...


My Doc Holiday who I was certain was a boy until about 12 weeks than she had me guessing for a few weeks after that.. Definitely a girl though @ 19 weeks!


Watching over her best buds.. She calls her friends to food she finds. Is that not strange? I have never witnessed that behaviour in anything other than a broody hen or a rooster. Whatever. She is a she - I'm sure of it.

And Hope - the frizzled silkie - unbearded. She always looks so grumpy

Looks like a girl all right! Love that first picture! I have a babysitter pullet who takes care of the chicks just like a mom and roo would. Shes only 4 mos and been doing it for several weeks now.
