Well, apart from letting the chickens out and putting them to bed yesterday, I spent the day in bed with man flu!. Not much better today either, but can't keep laying in bed, so I have been out and cleaned out a few houses this morning and also had to wire brooder 1, as the little Serama chicks discovered that they could fit through the bars, so have now put a stop to that thanks to some small holed chicken wire :).Have candled incubator 1 and am pleased to say that all the White Pekin eggs are fertile, and 1 of the Friesian Fowl, the other Friesian Fowl eggs look clear, so I'll give them a couple more days. The Sebright egg also looks clear, but other than that, everything else is developing. I also candled the Call Duck eggs in incubator 3 and all 12 are fertile :) Hopefully the first 4 Call Duck eggs will hatch this week :)
On the egg front, it's still very up and down, but did get a Legbar egg yesterday, Black Mottled Pekin, Red Pekin, Friesian Fowl, Old English Game Bantam, Gold Partridge, Buff and Cuckoo Pekins.
Already had a White Pekin and Lavender Pekin today.
