Thanks Tammy! Glad you did good too. Erin nice try selling some to my hubby. Better luck next year when we are in the market for them and turkeys. Just got to get set up first.

You girls are too much! Take a break! Remember all the white dander/dust in our houses all last winter?

Abstain from the chain!

 

[Soaring Chicks]

yes

! You would be in big trouble if hubby knew 1/2 of what he thinks he does!

(egg chain)
I keep checking not much going on right now. I'm waiting for some voilet or coral blue Guinea Fowl. Or just something I think is cool.
So did you sell out?
next year we are going to have around 200 Wheaten Marans Pullets and just a hand full of roo for ones wanting pairs. Roos will be dinner.
Plus BLRW, BBS Marans , Olive egg layers, Blue Wyandottes. Now that I have room and got to really try new bator out ( egg Chain)

He asked for it when he said yes to a bator that hatches 288 chicken eggs,1200 quail eggs and so on. He is already talking about building a brooder room now!

I wanted to check out your bator! Was that a brinsea 20 (something like that)? Can you tell me a little about it? Thanks (also for the blue maran roo

Also, thanks Erin for organizing this again (and anyone else!!)! My girls are totally enthralled with the quail-we are going to see how long it takes dh to notice

.

It was also nice to see some of the birds hatched from our eggs from last chickenstock (sorry, I forget your user name- I will make sure I memorize it, lol)!

I need to make a point to walk around more- by the time I wasn't so busy, almost everyone was gone! Lol! Can't wait for the spring (I only have coronations in the bator- we HAVE to take a break!!)
