This is start of Week #2, big chicks, no losses so far, still 52, and the hatchery sent me 2 females for extras according to the NPIP certification. A couple of days ago I had to do a vent cleaning, if you don't know... don't ask.

It happened before, it can happen again.
It happened there, it can happen here.
It happened to that person, it can happen to you.
No one is immune to the trials and tribulations of life.

You made a great choice the way you purchased the hens and the straight run. I learned the hard way and bought my first 10 straight run. 9 Roosters lol

My parents did similar, but they got 9 hens and one midget rooster. I forget the breed, but he was about half the size as the hens and they abused the crap out of him!
"Every person’s life is theirs by right. An individual’s life can and must belong only to himself, not to any society or community, or he is then but a slave. No one can deny another person their right to their life, nor seize by force what is produced by someone else, because that is stealing their means to sustain their life. It is treason against mankind to hold a knife to a man’s throat and dictate how he must live his life."
COFFEE!
Bantam most likely
Start of week #4, lost one due to rough playing,... broken neck, got 51 left.
