Rainbow Hatch (Pic Dump)

Our resident rooster wasn't getting the job done —we only had 1 fertile egg out of 13 in our test run, so we ordered a "Rainbow Pack" of 18 eggs from a breeder, and yesterday was hatch day.

​We’ve had 14 healthy chicks hatch so far, and the variety is amazing. We got a surprise Lavender Marans and one of our eggs labeled as bresse popped out a blue chick, so we sorted it as an easter egger for now.

Figured I would share some pics i took while getting them banded and sorted.

​The Lineup:

​Wheaten Ameraucanas: Red and Orange bands

​Crested Cream Legbars: These guys are auto-sexing, so we already know we have 2M (Blue bands) and 2F (Pink bands).

​Easter Eggers: Grey and Blue bands

​Bresse: White and Black bands

​Lemon Pyle Brahma: Yellow band (Already a absolute unit compared to the others).

​Marans: Green and Brown for the Black Coppers, and a Clear band for the Lavender Marans!
