So from a couple post ago you all heard my laments of farming. Coyotes came through the farm and took 12 of my chickens a combination of laying hens and roosters. It was a very sad day on the farm
As soon as that happen we went into full on replacement mode. I was unable to find a couple egg layers to bring in to help with our egg supply and I did have to purchase eggs for eating first time in 7 or 8 years.
But like I said we went into replacement mode. I took a bunch of eggs and got them into my newly fixed Cadillac of egg incubators and hatched out successfully 8 eggs. We won’t now for certain how many are boys and girls but it’s all about the fun of watching them grow.
Just this past weekend, farm boy got the coop all renovated and ready for the baby chicks. We did the introduction on Sunday and we have some very happy chicks and a not very lonely or depressed laying hen anymore.
So look for weekly updates on our feathered friends and to see what they grow into looking like and being.
Thanks for stopping by and visiting the homestead and farm. Give us a like or even say high in the comments bellow.
Take care everyone and God Bless.
