I understand, I think they are so cool too. But short of winning a multimillion dollar lottery, there is no hope for me to have those for at least 10 years while the numbers come up and the $$$ go down. Seeing that I am over 50 now (just barely) I don't have time to wait 10 years for anything. I want to spend 10 years breeding something not waiting to breed it.

I'm only 24 so I think I have some time to wait it out. If not I'm perfectly happy with my Reds.

It depends on where you are because some states have programs for younger ones but the national age is 8-18

Hello everyone, wanted to share a couple pics of my little baby. Only got 1 live chick out of the hatch, set 30, 15 were clear at lockdown, this one baby hatched. Just did the water testing on the others. No movements, so spent a couple hours opening up eggs (very slowly in case there was a live chick in it) out of the 14 blue/green eggs left 13 never developed and 1 had a chick that just did not hatch. No idea why.

But, I did get one live little chick and had to go buy her a buddy from the feed store, got a gold laced Wyandotte for her. Will be setting more eggs on Saturday for the hatch a long, hopefully these will be better.

Aww sorry you only got one. They are so cute though!!!!

That makes me hope I put enough eggs in the bator. I only did 11. (Golden-laced Wyandotte x Rhode Island Red)
