Feb. 09 Chickies/Eggs...

Remember my Feb.09 bator hatch... They Are Hatching

Here's the 3 I ended up keeping at a couple weeks old, they all turned out to be pullets! So I should start seeing pullet eggs this month...

...and I have from Happy Mama. I noticed her checking out a nest box and later I collected a lil pullet egg from that box. She did that same thing today, so far she has her favorite box.

*** I was looking back trying to figure out how many chicks I ended up keeping from my hatches (I havent been keeping track very well), 3 from Feb., 3 from March, 9 from April and 22 chicks in May... something like that.

  1. I think it is so neat when young hens start laying. They are so fun to watch. Like they don't know the ropes .... yet :)

  3. Wish I had your luck on what I keep, I tend end up with the roosters.
