Hey folks, apoligizes for not being around much, been towards busy opening up the back yard, finishing the shed/pump house, tried to hatch some chicks normal hen sitting didn't work out so good, just pulled them today not even gonna see if they were fertile, one that I did the chick didn't develope so I stopped there, they were due around memorial day no pictures this time..

now I have to ask all of you I'm looking at buying a bator any recomendations? I do have the homemade on but I ain't ready for that yet,
 
did you hear about ucla?

I did, I heard it was in the Engineering dept. 2 dead - Murder/Suicide. No additional gunmen were suspected. They had the campus locked down for hours. Really messes with traffic. All of my daughter's doctors are at UCLA medical building - same campus. I was glad we didn't have anything scheduled today! Very sad.
Chaos!! I forgot....


some of your eggs aint makin it over that way I had a oopsies in the lower entryway!!
There were actually five on the floor she scarfed them up so fast!!

We did the same thing, but ours was out in the coop. The chickens loved it....

How many eggs are you thinking about incubating at a time? I have an LG with a fan, it's ok, but I don't use it anymore. I have an Incuview and it's good for hatching, but not incubating. I have 2 Brinsea 40's with the humidity pump and I LOVE them. The Brinsea comes in a 20, and I think an 8 egg incubator. In the 40's, I get between 65 and 75 eggs when I'm also hatching bantam eggs. I HATE cleaning the Brinsea. That would be my biggest complaint is how you clean the fan area. You have to take out about 6 screws.

Me too. I've got some small buckets need to get them in freezer tonight.
I'm actually trying the ice with my earthworms as they were too hot yesterday. Put ice pack in bin. Pretty sure they will be near it when I get home. Last night they were all trying to escape bin

yes. I have some fruit juice pops in the freezer I gave each pen one, I had to leave pretty quick after but they seemed to enjoy it!
