The color of the week is Yellow.
The color of the week is yellow.
Yellow represents the 75 baby chicks I received in the mail on Tuesday.
Thus far all are well. There are 50 meat birds that will grow a an amazing rate and be ready for butcher in 60 days. The remaining 25 are Delawares. These will be my production birds for egg laying. I purchased straight run Delawares so I know I’ll have some roosers. I’ll keep the best 2 roosters (sorry neighbors, they will crow) and the hens for fertile eggs. Hopefully I won’t have to purchase chicks again as I have an incubator.
