I have to say I think the birds did OK for the winter, I have been seeing plenty around and the mild spring and dry weather with out the storms should have made for a great 1st hatch around here. :thumbsup:

I tend to agree. We might not have the populations we've enjoyed the last several years, but I think it'll be better than what I was thinking back around New Years. I saw a lot of exposed, vulnerable birds throughout the winter, and the number of hens seemed to be dwindling. But, I've seen a fair number of broods around these parts, including a rooster chick that was getting his color already. I'll be curious to see how populations have fared in West Central Minny where they seemed to have had a more of a winter than here in Brown County.

Well now I think they did well for sure, I have seen all kinds of hatches flying around, and even second hatch birds are doing great. It has been a perfect season for growing them.
