2011 hatches?

[Hurley]

I\'ve got 4 lavender bantams that are now feathered in along with 2 blacks and 1 blue LF from my New Year\'s Hatch.  Just hatched 8 lavender LF and 4 black splits yesterday.

Gotta love those lavenders!  That\'s a great photo.

Are these ones you hatched for yourself or to fill orders?

The buff bantams are for me and I want more.  Hopefully they\'ll keep laying and hatching to fill the orders too.

Aren\'t lavender chicks the cutest, most photogenic little critters?

John: Got any pics? It\'s got to be hard to part with any of those little guys! I\'m hanging on to all of my LF buffs at the moment. I started out with a single pair, so I\'m growing out everything that hatches before making any decisions.

We\'ve hatched about 150 so far.  We\'ve got LF blues, blacks and buffs.  For some reason, we\'re inundated with blues this year.  Even our blue/black pens are yielding 75-80% blues, and not a single splash out of our blue/blues.  Running about 90% hatch rate.  Just started getting buffs, though...it\'s still cold here in PA, back down to the 30\'s again (daytime), so eggs have been on and off...
