No, I did. 

Just playing to my dimwit reputation! 

[scabs]

I am so excited though...

[joyfull]

just think by the end of the day you could be the proud grandfather to a brood of little cockerels   

[scabs]

Don't think that hasn't already occurred to me! 

[joyfull]

time will tell - what breed are you hoping to hatch?

[scabs]

time will tell - what breed are you hoping to hatch?

Could be anything, the eggs came from an open paddock with White Stars, Bluebelles, Warrens and other mixed-ups, and a couple of cocks.

I'd quite like a couple of White Stars for the eggs.

[joyfull]

well those breeds shouldn't be too difficult to sex the little ones when they get to about 6 weeks. Unless of course the boys were silkies or araucanas.

[scabs]

No, don't think so. He keeps his 'good' stuff on a different plot.

We shall see...

[nicky d]

good luck with them, hope they all hatch safely,   nickyx

[scabs]
