SP's Faverolles Hatch-A-Long

SP's Faverolles Hatch-A-Long!
So as some of you might know my favourite hen-Peanut, a Salmon Faverolles got killed by my dog on friday.

So I decided to hatch some more because I adore the breed

---

Got 4 eggs yesterday from the same seller that I got Peanut from. They're now under my broody Silkie, Daisy.
Hatch date should be 4/30/2022

I should add Polish eggs later.

THIS IS A DAISY

I attached a nipple waterer to the crate and she loves it. And I don't need to worry about her getting dehydrated

I've always wanted to try one of those, but I'm worried my chickens won't use it because they're used to the gravity waterers

Mine are too but they love pecking at the nipple waterers. They learn quickly. I wouldn’t worry
