Unfortunately, not yet. I have Brahma, but no luck with getting a roo out of my hatches. So ALL girls. And I yet to find anyone in my area that even has Brahmas to get me a boy. Seriously thinking of heading up north next year just to get one.

I have silkie/showgirls in right now. They are a first for me. We will see if I get lucky with them.

Total is 6 so far.  When they are pipping rocking and hatching one right after the other, it's a real letdown when there are 6 eggs left and nothing happens for HOURS.  I get a foreboding feeling that they are going to be duds.  Does anyone else get this psychosis?  Here are the first 3 in the brooder.  "I've fallen and I can't get up!"

Since i have had all my hatches shipped eggs i have had more eggtopsies that hatches...lol
yes i hate that when 1/2 are bloopers.Such a waste but you may get a late bloomer or 2

That's the opposite problem I have. I have tried Marans twice now to get some dark eggs, but I only get roosters. But defiantly keep in touch, and I'll send you some d'Uccles when they start laying.

Me too. I hatched 5 BCMs and 4 were roosters.

I entered my d'Uccle babies in the calendar contest. It said I could enter two pictures so I also put in this one of my Old English Games Bantams in my apple tree.
