Not yet, summayah. We'll leave them in there for a few more days before we give up. Wink

We've been getting the maternity suite ready as we have to do a bit of moving about later. We left this broody ark open to dry after spraying with Poultry Shield & look who decides to make a nuisance of himself - KNOBBY!



I promise this was not set up - he really did get in by himself!

Yes he's gorgeous, and we already discussed your handsome looks in another forum.
As for Knobby and nuisance, well those words just fit together like bread and butter, sausage and mash and chicken and egg Laughing

Well, we had another O.C.Legbar pip late last night & it's hatched about half an hour ago! That makes 11 in all so far. 8 left. Very Happy

Another 1 hatched! This time a Welsumer which we thought were possibly all no good!

We had to help this one out of the shell though. Yes,yes I know you shouldn't, but how can you ignore it?

This is day 22 so I guess we'd better wait another few days before we give up. There are 7 left unhatched.
