We don't keep gf's now but based on past experience fertility will have fall dramatically by now, as will egg numbers, and the moult will start soon, if it hasn't done so already, so I personally wouldn't set gf eggs this late in the season.

You could look out in your local livestock/poultry auctions for youngsters.

These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.
