:laugh: currently have 34 eggs under broody hens :broodyhen:

In hindsite, a dozen is too many for my girls, as I see eggs peaking out all the time, so Im not expecting a full hatch from those 2 girls. But the one I gave 10 to is covering them nicely, though I had to give her some older eggs (dated back to the 15th) cause they all went broody at once. The next 3 weeks is going to be full of little blue, black, and splash Ameraucana babies!! :jumpy:

Im sure he wont be THAT mad..and I do have the space. Besides, they are all the same colours so I can just tell him hes seeing things :idunno: :laugh:

Well I'm not one to judge. I currently have 26 baby turkeys running around and that is after the ones I sold. Mine are all white and I'm sure my DH can't tell them apart!
Best of luck with the hatches.

I hatched over 100 silkie chicks and also some Ameraucana chicks, my husband just noticed yesterday. Ha! Ha! Ha!
I've already sold half of them, I wouldn't worry too much your husband is probably just like mine.
