Good day, everyone!
Two more chicks hatched last night/this morning, from the second batch of OEGB eggs I incubated. There are three more that could potentially hatch. And then one final batch (in the incubator) due around next weekend. Oh, and the eight that one of the hens is diligently sitting in the cage, lol!
With DD's blessing (I think she's too sick to care, she caught my cold) I'm picking up some coloured egg laying pullets today. Why such a cumbersome appellation, you may wonder? Because an Easter Egger is not a breed! Nor is a Labradoodle! Or any of these mixed breeds made to sound fancier than they are! LOL!
