Hatch-a-holic

I can’t stop hatching birds. It is so great ;)

But then raising them until they can live outside is a stinky business ;)

Plus then later I need to ‘do something’ with the males, I like eating them, but killing them is hard, you spend ages trying to keep them alive, grow to love them, then have to kill them.

There are 20 runner ducks (from our own eggs)

12 silkie eggs (mini fluffly broody chickens) and 16 cream legbar eggs (autosexing blue egg laying chickens). But as I mentioned before eggs that have been through the upheaval of postage don’t hatch very well :(
