hope they are all full mate if the ones aren't of the pensioners what I would and have done is give them an egg of other pair to hatch and rear thus going thru a natural cycle and not having another round of eggs quickly.

Well !!!!! Smile

That makes 16 pair between us two old codger's Ginger etc "At this stage" Wink

here. I've never had an issue/problem mating up old cocks, as long as they are well looked after type of thing & even thou they may be in the pensioner category Rolling Eyes

Their use by date, can be quite lengthy from my experience. cheers
