Just a few more days!!  big_smile


Please spay and neuter your pets. There are dogs and cats dying every day because there just aren't enough homes!

Re: Thanksgiving Hatch- Anyone want to join in?

I received my first box of eggs today, all pulled this weekend semi locally so they can wait a day or 2 before being set.  Next box should be here tomorrow and the eggs in the bator should be hatching tomorrow as well wee

Re: Thanksgiving Hatch- Anyone want to join in?

*pacing begins*

I want to candle my duckies. I remember from last time though that it was a while before anything showed up.

I have 20 duck eggs, 6 silkies, 6 seramas, and the turners filled out in white leghorns.

Re: Thanksgiving Hatch- Anyone want to join in?

I candled right before I put them in last week. On some of them it was hard to tell which was the big end without candling. It's how I discovered that I have a bunch of large and broken air cells. I am going to be really nervous about these guys.

Possible Pekin x Pekin, Pekin x Black Runner, Pekin x Khaki Campbell, Pekin x Rouen. I sense a happy Pekin drake with a multi breed harem somewhere.
