    Fermented Feeds

    Fed the ferment this morning and it was a big hit. The ducks liked is probably the most. Even my week old chicks that the hens have with them gobbled it up before any of the hens could show them that it was food.

    Yeah I take them to my few customers anyway. I charge 3 pee dozen and some people complain about that otherwise I would probably charge 4. I quickly learned I wasn't going to get rich selling eggs at any volume.

    Still Air Hovabator Questions

    Hello, I'm new to incubating eggs, and so far I've had my hovabator going for a couple days to get everything settled down.

I was hoping that she was just an extremely fast maturing pullet, but...
