Well the girls went home Friday just in time to go on Holiday with their mum and dad.They are probably splashing about in a pool in Cyprus as I write so it is back to normal for us,No little helpers with the Chicks.
We had a bad hatch with our venture into breeding Large Orpingtons with only 2 Black out of 12 Black and 6 White hatching.
We currently have 2 incubators full with 6 more white,12 polands and some of our own.Th e main incubator is looking good with all 6 White Orpingtons and the 12 Polands fertile so it really is fingers crossed this time.

• We have 2 sets of 2 White Japanese,4 Buff bantam Orpingtons and the 2 Blacks all doing well in the Brooder and all except the 2 Large Black Orpingtons will be for sale soon.
