Hope the hatching season is going well for all of you.... I'm up to my eyeballs in chicks. This group just hit the grow out pen a couple days ago... Around 50 in this group, they're between 4-7 weeks of age. In another month, they'll be segregated by sex. They are cleaning out 11lbs of chick feed every 2 days at the moment
Still have another 50 between 2-4 weeks locked up in the coop, and will probably hatch another 50 just to be safe that I have plenty of birds to choose from for next years breeders. Gonna be a massive freezer camp meeting at the end of the summer, but I'm very hopeful for some truly impeccable quality birds for next year. I'm quite pleased with all of their parents, just want to tweak a couple things here and there.
