Egg Hatching

[Mini Horses]

That is laughingly adorable!!! New perspective.

I've decided -- 5 pullets, 3 roo -- from incubator hatch. 3 pullets, 1 roo (?) from hen hatched. Then 4 pullets I bought 6 wk ago.....so, a dz new layers for winter!! . Perfect.

Corrections

8 from incubated...6 pullet, 2 roo.
4 hen hatched...2 pullet, 2 roo
3 just hatched...2 pullet, I roo

Great...makes 10 new layers, assuming all survive until then....plus the 4 bought BOs. 14 eggers.

Same for BOs purchased, 4 pullets, 1 roo. They are doing very well, lovely birds. Nov they should start laying, brown eggs. Some of the incubated 6 will be POL Dec...brown, blue & green eggs. The just hatched will begin Feb/March....green prob.

That's the end of this years renewables. I need to start finding 1) egg buyers or 2) laying hen buyers. At least only 5 roos to stock pot. And still have my 14 current layers, 2 y/o & beyond.

Chicken math!!!!
