Mmm Chicken

This is the first run of CornishX destined for the freezer ..the yellow ones, there are four layers mixed in the batch. They are about 3wks behind the feed store had trouble getting them in apparently there was a shortage?? Anyways they are here and in 7wks will be bagged, tagged and frozen. Good thing about getting birds this late is they don’t need a light in the brooder so it’s one less thing to mess with.

Baby Chicks

The hen just hatched out 2 over the weekend..the one with the white spot hatched today. She had 5 eggs so 3 isn’t too bad.
