The cost of eggs has been steadily increasing and sodas the demand for home raised eggs. Last year we were surprised when we discovered we had a rooster in our new batch of store bought chicks. Soon after the one did we discover three more roosters. We kept the gentlest rooster to see if he would bring unity and order to our blended flock. He did help reduce the hen pecking in our flock. Now we want to see if he can give us more chicks to expand our flock.
We now have 20 new baby chicks in the brooder boxes. This is a short video of one of those chicks hatching.
