I'll take some of the venison kind, actually I'll take a little of everything Looks good!
Yeah, it's ok I'm still happy about the hatch rate. I've learned that I need another incubator But seriously, I do want a Brinsea. But I do feel like the old styrofoam taught me so much too, things I...
I eggtopsies my last three. Look shrink wrapped to me, and one looked shrink wrapped but had a lot of fluid inside its sac. Poor babies
If my humidity was too low during incubation, I would think a lot more would be shrink wrapped. Maybe they just quit? I don't know, they never internally...
I saw Amy posted a pic. Do a YouTube search of the noise they make. It's disturbing, when I first moved to the woods hubby laughed at me because I almost peed myself when I first heard them.
I live at the end of a dirt road too LOL. It used
to be all dirt, but they paved half of it,
and then...
AM=Ameraucana. Thanks, I'm not sure how many boxes yet. I honestly haven't thought about how many, I just know hubby was
going to put big ones, he said he has like 20inches- he's going to cut the right side wall out and build them off the supporting side beams. Of my Orps. (That are in the coop...
Ohhhhh the grappling hook?! That big thingy you mean? We use it as an anchor at the lake. We have a small bass boat- like a tiny one with a trolling motor (we can't have gas
on our lake) and when we get into the cove and start casting we use it as an anchor.
I was like that the heck are you...
That hook thingy? Haha, holds the door open. That window is heavy, like ridiculous heavy.
I'd totally send you some BLRW. I don't think I should keep them all. Especially if I want to do another hatch in the fall. I hope I get some pretty hens and even a roo. I'd like to get my daughter into...
Ha. I like the sea foam and pink, I do.
I want to paint my front door red so they'll match.
Yeah that's perfect. I can get my Maran eggs and make me some Olive Eggers!
Hahahahah OMG stahhhhhp it. That's how you say "stop it," in Northerner
Yes, It's an old window from our house, I hope they don't run into it either! Haha can you imagine? We put the rope pulley system so I can clip it to the side there, and hold it open. It's a very heavy double pane window. Then they can come and go all day as they please.
I thought of one upside in regards to waiting for a September hatch- maybe I can squeeze a Brinsea out of hubby for my birthday
I really did enjoy the hatch, the styrofoam
isn't bad, and I like putting the hard work into it. Not that a Brinsea isn't work, or any other bator for that matter...
Thanks. He has good ideas sometimes
You know for a guy... LOL, kidding, kind of.
Thanks! I know baby chicks are like the cutest things ever. My orpingtons were so cute when they were babies too. I just can't believe how sweet they are, last night both the girls just let me pet them and they...
Ack! I'm so sick of this site eating my posts, anyways for the second try: How cute! Congrats on the babies! How's the rest of the hatch going? I've hatched 8 out of 11 so far, 3 left in the incubator. I candled last night, I thought I saw movement but I think I'm just desperate to see anything...
Any hatches yet?!
Haha come take some of mine. Hubby says we can't keep them all. I need to get rid of some of these things!
Aw they're like little fluff balls! Are they hard to keep clean? So, I have three eggs left to hatch. Today is day 21- so hoping they all hatch! The one I thought drown...
Thanks guys, I let it rest a bit and played
some peeping to them. One little chick has his beak through and the one that pipped low is rocking and trying to pip more through the hole, so I think he's OK. Just taking his sweet time is all.
Aw I them! How sweet, mine look just like that. I was trying to figure if they're splash or not, because I thought they just carried the lavender gene, but they look similar to yours. Same coloring, it's not white, more like a light gray. I'll take pictures later. Name her Sally, I don't know...
Thanks! Hoping the rest go well.
Thanks! Question for you guys, I see a chick pipped in there, looks below the air cell, unless the air cell is lower, or grew more. The one next to it pipped after him, and is pecking away. I'm thinking it may have drowned, is that possible if it externally...
