Thürigian Bearded Bantam (Critically Endangered Breed)

[Amer]

Weird, it seems they're either super broody or barely broody from what I've heard. I have a few friends who have them and they're either extremely or seldom broody

Yes, pretty much

I can't wait to see how the silkie mix is doing today, perhaps more eggs have hatched! I did also candle the two eggs under the D'anver and only one was developing so I'm giving her 3 phoenix eggs so she can have a hatch of 4, hopefully I can keep the hens chill around each other. I'm worried of I move the D'anver to my other coop she'll loose broodiness. My incubator is full so if she abandons the eggs they're doomed...

I'm happy to update that the silkie mix hen has hatched out 3 adorable little babies!!! Baby Bee has also been a wonderful father too!

As for the babies I hatched, I'm happy to say they're all doing wonderfully!!! They're getting in the last of their feathers in and I'm planning on moving them outside next weekend. I can tell I have 2 boys (one Single comb, one Rosecomb) and I'm not sure about the other two. I'm hoping I get at least 1 pullet, but one of the boys is looking very promising! I've been calling him German Bourbon since he reminds me of bourbon turkeys and his dad's obviously a German breed. I'm looking forward to seeing how he develops, I think he might even become the head rooster of my breakfast egg flock too. They all seem to slowly be getting more skate colored legs too.

Here's a photo of one of the other babies, it's with my cemani chicks since the micro bees are so friendly lol
