    AinaWGSD's Project 365

    Day 84 The little town we're staying in is full of beautiful old historic buildings. And then there's this awesome purple iridescent spider. Not usually a fan of painted brick, but the purple is kinda working for me

    Day 83 This is the Airbnb I'm staying in on a girls' trip to visit a friend in PA! It's a gorgeous old house. Bonus pic, I really like the sunset lighting in this pic of the back of the house

    Gender and breed?

    Probably not, male specific feathers don't start coming in until 9-12 weeks

    Sh3 looks so good! I'm glad she seems to have made a full recovery.

    AinaWGSD's Project 365

    Day 82 I finally cracked the giant egg for the quiche tonight. I was a little surprised it was only a double yolker, as big as it was I was betting on at least a triple.

    Gender and breed?

    I don't see anything that would make me think it's not a marans, but it is definitely blue and not black. As to gender, with the size and redness of the comb a wattles at six weeks I would strongly suspect male. However, single combed pullets can sometimes develop fairly large combs early on...

    17th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    I don't know, guess we'll find out in 13-16 days. It was developing right on track with the others though, so I put it back in right side up. If anyone else has any experience I'd love to hear how it went for them.

    17th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along

    Candled last night and only had 2 clears! 3 we weren't 100% certain we saw veins but pretty sure. And one particularly round egg that we put in the turner upside down (air cell down).

    Easter Bean-feast Hatchalong

    Out of 56 eggs only 2 were clear! Of 54 eggs, there were two that we were pretty sure we saw veining in but weren't 100% sure and one we thought maybe could have been a blood ring. All eggs went back into the incubator, we'll pull the clears when we candle again.

    Amerucana hen or roos

    Nothing say male to me yet, but 5 1/2 weeks is when I just start noticing some redder combs on some of my pea comb males. I'd be much more confident on gender in another 3 weeks.

    AinaWGSD's Project 365

    Day 80, 7 hours later The weather yesterday was perfect for just hanging out in the yard. Sven is a connoisseur of sticks, but not very graceful. He kept smacking everyone!

    Permanent solitary hen?

    I agree, if she hadn't completely healed it's too soon to reintroduce her. And if she's been separated out of sight from the rest of the flock long enough to completely heal you need to do a gradual reintroduction. Is there any way to build her her own space in the run where she can be with the...
