Star had a boy and a girl. It is dark and I didn't want to disturb her, she is not the friendliest doe. They both look dark brown- no Ob colored ones.

Maybe pics tomorrow.....

I got pictures this morning but I forgot to bring the card reader to download them. Y'all will have to wait.

I heard peeping noises in the incubator whenI filled the water. I didn't really want to open it but the humidity was waaaaaaay too low. The freeze overnight probably had something to do with it.

Turkeys are growing well but I have lost a lot of White Midgets. none of the others, just the midgets

Where did you get the turkeys from again?

The white midgets, blacks and choclates came from Meyer. The Narrangesset came from Privet. I lost 2 of the Narrangesset out of 25, none of the black or chocolate and 6 out of 27 of the white midgets. 3 were in 48 hours so I should get reimbursed but I have not gotten any response to my email.


There are 7 chicks in the incubator. These are barnyard mixes, I am still figuring out the best way to do this. All of the ones from blue eggs are yellow with spots on thier heads and orange legs. There is one from a brown egg but I can't quite see what it looks like. I have EE, RIR and Buff Brahma hens and EE, RIR and Light Brahma roos.

Their FB page said that their phone systems are down and they are asking for people to contact them via email so I bet that they are inundated with emails. I would follow up with them though because they really are very good about taking care of customers.

Star's babies. the pictures are lousy. It was dark and all the light is from the flash. I couldnt' see what I was taking a picture of untill the flash went off.

Cute babies. Your Kiko buck must have some strong color genetics. Every one of your kids that are part kiko are the same color. Seems no matter what color mom is that Kiko buck throws kids with his color. How do you keep up with who belongs to who when all the kids in the field are the same color?
