Miscellaneous Meeps - Hatching my Dreams

[2ndTink]

Absolutely gorgeous Tink! They look so happy and healthy!

Thank you! I'm so happy with how they are growing up!

Glad you weren't hurt too seriously! Yeah, the knee-high boots are pretty miserable in the heat. My legs are nothing but sweat in them in the summer, so I switch to sandals... even though that kinda leaves my legs and feet vulnerable to curious pecks and mean little fuzzballs

It is pretty funny, a small, round fluff jumping through the air at you Wish he'd stop, though!!




I have no idea what it is that makes them flip. I've heard that some have had success retraining their boys, but I never have, personally, no matter what I try.

That's my least favorite part of hatching, too, dealing with all the cockerels I can't keep. Especially when they're such sweet boys.




Excited to see babies!!

Yeah, my OEGBs were frequently internally pipping at day 18, and my Cochin bantams sometimes are already drawing down at day 18 by the time I'm candling them before moving them to lock down.

I just had two Cochin Bantams hatch on day 17!
