Texas

You can tell just by looking. We went last month when it was pretty out and there were some nasty birds. Now I have allot of birds, so Poo does not bother me. But birds stacked on each other with 6+ in a pen the size of a small rabbit cage, I'm not stopping.
Some of the places had that "smell". I grew up on a farm, so the smell of poop doesn't bother me either but I can tell when it smells sick. And some did. Some of the pens had 5-6 hens in a small cage and they were debeaked. I don't want hens that are debeaked. I want them to be able to peck at something if they need to.

I'm with you there. Some of them are battery hen's that have been rescued, or should I say they are trying to make a buck.

Well I got 4 A & M quail eggs today and two splash Marans, so of course I fired the bator up. Hopefully my gurls will get in gear and start to lay. I'm waiting on some quail eggs, and English white Orpington eggs will go in soon I hope.

I just set 20 eggs today. Did you set your's today too?
 
I set 14 test eggs from my two young BLRW cockerels and 6 shipped BLRW eggs. The shipped eggs took 4 days to get here. They are all intact so hoping they all hatch!

Hey, I've heared Whole foods and Trader Joes has fertile eggs. I haven't seen them but have read post about them.
Good luck on your hatch!
