-flops- I live! I think... it's been nuts over here. ugh.
So my second batch hatched out on May 16th, they're going to be 3 weeks old tomorrow. I seriously need to post about them so I can get them sold (even though yes I have a lady who's interested in more of the girls).
The roosters from...
Welp, the universe has a funny way of doing things. So I'm in the process of getting my grow out/meat bird pen finished so I can finally evict these darn roosters out to my mom's instead of them being cooped up in my office!
I was at Agway today getting supplies for just that, and a lady heard...
Hey all!
So I have my Black Sex Link project in full swing and have successfully hatched 2 batches of chicks. But when I was in Agway today, a lady asked me if I had fertile hatching eggs that she could buy since she has a broody hen. She only wants 6, which is fine by me. But I'm having...
Jane if that tractor is still available, I'll happily take it off your hands. We need a grow out pen for the roosters and my farm (at my mom's place) is only 45 mins to an hour from you!

Luck is on my side!!! A friend got me in touch with a family member of his looking for birds yesterday, she's buying 3 females off me. And today I chatted with a lady in one of the chicken groups that's buying the other 2 females!
So all my females are now spoken for which means it's time to...
Ah disability it's so lovely here in the US.... Cause that's how it is here too.
So it's not just Montana. That's how disability works across pretty much the entire United States. The federal cutoff is normally 2k across all accounts, even investments. You're allowed to have a...
I did! It's a boy and girl pair from my first hatch of the season (These black sex links are so darn cute). And I entered it into the chick photo contest. Haven't entered anything else, but we'll see how we do!
Well, I wasn't getting notifications today apparently!
Good news though! I finally got my first customer for ordering chicks! We're just trying to figure out pickup logistics now lol. (Oh how I love scheduling...)
I have 5 black sex link females ready to go right now, they hatched on 4/11! You can see all my info in my for sale thread here. If you're interested at all please message me!
I'm not able to ship birds and I know you said you're in the Northeast, if you're not too terribly far from PA we can...

Thanks! Yeah, it looks just right in the corner. Definitely worth the driving to go get it.
Incubating for me isn't too terrible, it's hatching that gets stressful and then I lose sleep constantly checking on the humidity and making sure they're alright. But it's worth it to see them being...
Heh, I figured you'd understand better than most. And fair, I just wanted to at least get it off my chest and warn people in case they were nearby/if they got out to this neck of the woods.
Oh trust me, she was very excited pulling up your website and looking through what you have hatching...
I'm glad to see the chicks are alright, my week has been absolutely insane. Murphy and his law have descended upon my family and he needs to take a very long vacation.
As for my chicks, I'm getting geared up for my second hatch of the season, my first batch of babies are up for sale but I...
Welp that was an adventure. (Long post incoming!)
Yesterday I printed out flyers (I did 6 so I had one extra just in case and boy am I glad I did) and went around town dropping them off at a bunch of feed mills.
I started with my local Agway which is over in Cressona, lovely people there. It...
Listen I keep saying Mother Nature is going through Menopause right now and it's rough!
So update on the chicks, they're doing good, being little menaces as usual. I've got my flyer typed up so I'm planning on putting those up at the local feed stores nearby. I also need to start posting on...
