We've been working with another homestead to start a new flock to our homestead.

We've spent time incubating and coming up empty..... for some reason just not working out. You know me I WILL NOT give up.

I so want to cross ~ breed our Brahma roo with American Breese hens for a more hardier meat bird.

Brahmas and American Breese are both dual purpose birds - American Breese start laying around 4 months and Brahmas around 6/7 months.

By next year I want a flock to reproduce, and a flock for meat - off set incubating with buturing times to keep a flow. Eventually I want to sell the processed chickens. American breese hens will lay eggs for 2 months before the window of processing. Id like to have a rotation every 6 months to incubate and butchure chickens.

We have not been having any luck with the fertilized eggs we've been purchasing- its frustrating but we are not giving up!! This will work.

Another goal we have is making smaller coops, and runs for pure breeds so we have fertilized eggs, and chicks. Right now I move chickens around to get pure breeds and wait 2 weeks for pure breed fertilized eggs.

We have so much in the works and each day I try to accomplish moving forward to achieve another goal.

Keep setting goals and remember things take time......
