Eglu cube or go up with 2m run

[Lewis]

Lewis is just a little bit excited

After losing some girls to the fox a few weeks ago and have the WIR finally built, I'm hopefully hatching some more girls!

 

I met one breeder last week and collected 8 eggs, and another 2 boxes came today

 

I have:

4 Transylvanian Naked Necks

4 Silver laced (frizzle) poland bantams

3 Lavender araucana

Silver Sussex

Lemon Pyle or Dark brahma

Buff X Black Orpington

3 Barred Wyandotte bantams

Silver laced Wyandotte bantam

Pekin X Poland bantam

Welsummer X FCB maran (meat bird)

Incy has been playing up a bit the past few days, so hope at least some hatch, and then a few are girls

 

Have another 12 Brahma X Maran coming for someone else too

I'm not expecting them all to hatch (because of post and my incy) and they won't all be girls Raina! Thanks anyway

Good luck, I was hoping to get naked necks in my ebay mix but they have come today and are mostly silkies (which I love) and then 6 which I think are leghorns or legbars (cant read it very well but they are white eggs not much of a mix really!

[grracee]

Good luck

Good luck Lewis How many can you hatch and keep?

Good luck Lewis How many can you hatch and keep?

They won't all be fertile + hatch, then some will be boys, so me thinks thats 5 girls max and he said we can keep 6 girls

Saying that we set 12 eggs last year + got 1 girl!

 

Planning eat any boys that are big enough, and try to re-home any others

 

 

Friend slipped over in the bath so can't get out to post them .... another time

Ooh I so hope all your araucanas are girls. All those But you can have the mini vultures though.

What a mix - no wonder your dad spluttered a bit!
