1.8 Had to bring to an end

Ruby was getting extremely restless and dirty in her small space. I felt so bad for her and the eggs had died(I was pretty sure) so I let her out. I have plenty of info to write a conclusion for my school so this is the end of my project.

However, I would like to keep this page so I've been thinking about what i will do with it. I always have projects, not always school, that I can post on here. Like, we might still attempt to hatch eggs, but with an incubator or something like that.

We did go to see a friends hen that has been sitting on eggs and they just hatched. She has 4 mixed breed babies and they are adorable. She's been an amazing mom, pecking the heck of of anyone attempting to get near.

Another thing, we went to a poultry meeting last night. I told the "chicken man" about our issues with getting a hen broody. He said that he has some hens that would be amazing setters(broody hens) if I want them. Certain breeds make better moms than others. They're Old English hens. I'll think about it.

So yep!

  1. Good news from the "Chicken man"
    I agree with you, just because the projects for school are over does not mean your seeking information and testing theories should be over.
    Love you
