Hi All,
Yesterday was a big day for some of our fowl friends. A couple months back a friend loaned us his incubator so we thought we'd see if we could hatch some of the eggs our chickens have been laying. About a month ago seven out of the nine eggs hatched. Yesterday we moved those seven in with the adults. All is well!

Also yesterday, after approximately 28 days, three baby turkeys hatched. There are five more eggs in the incubator with two different "due dates". Getting turkeys to adulthood isn't as easy as with chickens but hopefully since we've had some luck in the past they'll all make it.

That's all for now.
