    Anyone hatching on the 27th?

    Quote: What a cute chick. I think he is a rooster and his name should be Stevie Wonder. I bet he has a beautiful singing voice. You must have had Stevie playing alot while he was incubating.

    Anyone hatching on the 27th?

    QUestion on candeling this egg..

    The chick may have moved into a different position and in doing so made it appear to either made more room or to take up more room. The last few days they are usually moving into position so they may hatch. I have even seen eggs roll over during the attempt. I would still give it more time.

    QUestion on candeling this egg..

    The chick should take up most of the egg and can make it impossible to candle the last few days of the incubation. I have had some eggs you could easily see the chick on the day it hatched and some you couldn't see at all until it hatched. Just give it time and if it isn't here by next...

    Whats the weirdest thing you've ever eaten??

    DH says down in French Guiana they would use ants as seasoning...they taste like lemon. One of the smelliest but tasty things I have eaten recently was Kimchee. I believe you can smell that one in the next state. Oh and talk about clearing your sinuses...It may be the cure for the common...

    40 weeks and No eggs from one hen.

    We had one that was 46 weeks when she started to lay. She now is my best layer with at least one egg every day. I think she is trying to play catch up.
