WHAT YA GOT SWAP Chat Thread

[202roosterlane]

I guess I though a WC Blue polish and a WC Blue polish would only have a WC Blue polish.... lol. 14 dozen eggs........Oh My Goodness I am trying to wrap my brain around that. Oh now I remember what the other breed is. Ancona. I only bought 4 of them. So we'll see if I end up with 4 roos LOLs.

Beth, only 88 eggs got set? I set 14 dozen Sunday.
I'd rather not count my flock. I just moved 200ish chicks to an outside brooder. I have a wooden grainery that is divided into 2 halves. In one half I made 4 pens. Half of it as a grow out pen, then the other half was divided into 3 brooders (2 for chicks and one for the stinky goslings/ducklings).

One blue polish egg hatched from beth and I'm guessing its a splash. It is pure white right now at about 4 weeks old.

Around here , I do not count chickens. After all, I sell them on a regular basis so the total changes. Plus chicks are always hatching. I did sell my RIR flock, so that coop is empty. Just needs cleaning and I can move the Ameraucanas in.

Thank you all you beautiful animal lovers for posting your flock numbers and thereby proving to my DBF that I am merely an amateur, NOT some kind of crazy chicken lady!!

I'm reading him the counts and he is aghast! I am so not worthy, I only have 13 birds and four of those are 12 wks and under, 2 are roosters up for sale. I only have 7 eggs under my hen, 8 in the mail and 6 on IOU. I really need to get busy here to catch up!

There are four dogs and three cats here also as well as a 13 year old boy. I'm always busy, how do you all manage to get anything done!?

Yup Jim wins !!!!

And I am getting blue,black,splash from my blue Polish. I will be selling them as soon as I fill my last order. Also selling my bantam AMs and some other...just not sure what yet. I need to cut back to the low 100s.

I am not at the caliber as others, but I have a bit.
Chickens, Rabbits, Dogs, Cats, Livestock, and Kids. We just added the Rabbits last weekend. Hubbie bought a breeding pair of Velveteen. I was not really surprised though when I was brushing some matts out of the Doe and her male bits jumped out. I'm guessing we will be adding two more Rabbits at some point.

Low 100s??? Sheesh I have to cut to about 50-60 every year :/ I might go drastic this year and only keep 30-40... Totally depends if we get the extra pens built this year...
