Maybe next year we could swap eggs to get some diversity

Angie~ How is the hatch going?

All have hatched and all but 3 have gone to a new home. Yayy me! It means I can set another flat of these eggs today.

That's the way to do it, move them out and hatch some more

I want to hatch more poults. Love them!

 

[MissPrissy]

I love the sweetness of the poults. They are truly the sweet birds I have ever hatched.

 

[miss_jayne]

i agree. the most elegant looking bird for sure.

I am now without poults. All have gone to a new home. I have 21 eggs in the Dickey. My broody turkey hens did not lay yesterday!! Grrr. LOL

You can't have that! Get hatching. We sold a bunch Friday and yesterday - there are 4 Bronze left. They keep looking for their "pals"

I was worried about having 42 poults left unwanted. Not! lol

We usually don't keep them very long here either. Our season is starting to wind down here, more of the hens are going broody. We have your Bronze eggs in the bator and I think some more of ours. I want to set one more batch of BR's for us - a couple of our yearing hens didn't lay that well or only layed a few eggs and went broody so they are culls.
