The 4th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long

[Happy Chooks]

We had too many time sensitive orders to participate with setting eggs on the 9th in a large quantity

Did you set any?

 

[loves2hatch]

To clarify, what is your total set for this hatch?

my total set for the hatch along is 12 Barred Rock eggs.

the quail I'm waiting a few days so they will hatch after Easter so they can be picked up by their owners soon after all are done hatching. Sorry if I confused ya.

Looks like thebirdguy is the record setter so far with 306 eggs set!

(You'd better start sucking up to the wife)

I've been sucking up to the DW for 18 years 9 months and 12 days (but who's counting)

Hey Guys! I am such a numbers person.We did beat last years record. We had 278 participants! Yay US! But only 148 have # of eggs set...so I copied the list of who needs their numbers in. Thought I would post them as a reminder.

Unrelated to the Easter hatch but I have to share a little excitement that the framework and floor joists are going into our coop right now! We did finally decide to go with the structure/barn that was/is already on the property when we moved here in November. Needs a lot of work but figured it will be worth it in the end. One side will be for chickens and the other for storage and turned into a workshop area. Yay!

Yay!!! Our coop is in progress too .... !!! If it turns out shareable when we get done I will post picks cause I really enjoyed looking at all the coops on the home page here at BYC!!!
