The 8th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!!!!

[Razadia]

Raz, seeing your roosters makes me want on soo bad..and I already wanted one sooo bad! Beautiful!

I'm lucky two are terrified of me and the other has some spectacular manners. Brick is pretty and all, but I'd give him up in a heartbeat if it ever came down to him or Blizzard. The other guy is a growing chicken dinner.

Count me in! It is +/- 2 days for set date of Saturday, right?

+ or - 2 days from noon on Saturday, March 25, for chickens count toward the total eggs set for the Easter Hatchalong (equivalent days for other breeds/poultry types).

I have a pip in my eggs that came a mess.

I had messaged they guy that I had 10 go into lock down.  He told me again that the eggs take 21 .. 22 days to hatch, and have had them go as long as 23. 

This egg that has pipped, is a big egg!   With a big air sac.  It is pipped at the right end, but at the top.  I've had them zip sideways..will see.  It's a pretty dark speckled egg.  He has Welsummers.    A lot of those made it to lock down. I had a small one .. same coloring rocking earlier. 

I hope your hatch goes well.
I havent had any jumbo eggs hatch, 3 larger bantam roos free ranging with them but ive gotten a few fertile eggs, but its like even if they make lock down and after pip they cant finish. Anyone else see that with jumbo eggs fertilized by a smaller roo?

That brahma reminds me of a Shetland sheep dog when it pops out of the round hole. What a hoss! lol

Oh no, not you too! I've seen it so many times today.

My first time seeing it..had to share...man, I'm glad all chickens don't get that big. I couldn't afford to feed them!

But...but...could you imaging how many eggs a broody that big could hatch???
