These little fuzzbutts were flopping around in my hatching box when I got home from work today, there are about 15 still in the process of hatching. The two on the left are Crested Cream Legbars, on the far left is the male. The three on the right are Rhodebars, the male is in the middle. I still have 42 more incubating that will hatch later this month. If anyone is interested in these auto-sexing breeds just let me know. I am finished hatching this year but I am still collecting fertile eggs fresh everyday. I have lots of little pullets and roos of different ages (all hatched since April 1st) available.

For some reason, I'm thinking @RoboDuck was looking for Rhodebars.

Well how's it going in Lanett Alabama. I grew up in Chambers County Alabama, a little tiny place called Standing Rock. When I was a teenager if I wasn't at West Point Dam on Saturday night, I was in Valley, Alabama at the bowling alley. Now I'm getting homesick.

Um, I have a dilemma. Kinda. Maybe. Oops?


You see, @abmaddox1981
, @mrsdszoo
, and I, all chipped in for about 100 eggs for a school project up in Covington. We "loaned" them to the school for free. We sent certain eggs with marks stating we definitely wanted those back (purebreds, or other lines that were important to us). The rest, they could adopt out to students IF they had parents' permission. Any not adopted, we would take back. It kinda keeps the teachers from making money off of something we GAVE to the school.

Well she got donations from other sources and ended up with almost 200 eggs. As of last week, she said about 165 still seemed viable. They were all due to hatch Monday.


I sent her a text asking how it went and she said the overall hatch rate was about 50%. I'm guessing that means about 100 chicks? And it turns out VERY few children took chicks home.


So on Sunday, she's going to show up at my house with all of the extra chicks. So I have a feeling that I'm about to get roughly 100 chicks, all at once, all less than a week old, and all different breeds (many probably even mixed breed).


Um....
