"Springing in the Chicks" 2016 April Hatch-a-Long Hosted by Mike & Sally

[BantyChooks]

Hi everyone!
(This is the user formerly known as J&T Ranch lol)
Just getting caught up from a busy weekend! I set 12 of my own Blue Copper & Splash Marans eggs on Friday (my first from my breeder birds woohoo!!) So hope to see them hatch on/around April 1st. I'll also be setting some more lavender/self blue bantam Cochins when the eggs arrive in the next day or so. I wouldn't be surprised if a few more of my Marans eggs jump in the bator then too

We had chicks and juveniles in 5 different areas

But integration is going well so we can move 3 groups this week if we get to it and I'll have an empty brooder when these April chicks arrive!

Hiya! I was wondering where you were off to.

Hi Banty!
I've been re-doing a couple of rooms here in the house, we've got another coop build going, kids starting spring sports... Chickens everywhere...Just crazy lol. But we are getting things done and I'm glad to be back!

Good start!
I'm building an incubator from a mini fridge which will start a set soon, hopefully. I have 15 Cream Brabanter due to hatch April 1st that are set in my MacGyverbator. I am considering building an incubator out of an electric grill and an old oven. I have to make a few changes to my barn before I can put all the egg incubating devices in my Mad Chicken Lab.
