These ones are mine and I thought the two OEs were 7330 7325 or 7320 but who knows now haha. I'll be referring to your pics when they start to feather to see who's who!

@wrathsfarm and @Auntiejessi3 I found a lady nearby that has BCM hatching eggs. Keep in mind I'm not planning on doing a breeding program, these are just for me so they don't have to be SOP. They look healthy to me. Do you agree?

Edited to add: I asked specifically about the rooster's temperament and she said hes the nicest rooster she's had. She also breeds silkies and says they're terrors in comparison lol.

Yes, they do look clean and healthy. And a good temperament is a huge plus.
I love my boys for the great temperament.

I wanted to wait until yours are ready but my girls are DETERMINED!

One of the OEs is back on the nest. The Onyx hasn't jumped back on yet so maybe she snapped out of it.

That's quite alright..we do what's best for the flock. If you still would like some in the Spring, reach out.

They are nice looking birds. A few extra chicks never hurt anyone

Just the one broody now. She's been the most determined. She's a small girl and pretty low on the pecking order. Here's a pic to show size. I hope she'll be a good mom.

How many eggs should I put under her..?
