I don't play either.  My parents drive to GA when the lottery gets to a good enough size since they know the higher it is, the better the payout. Taxes take a lot out before it's over.
 

Thanks Everyone for good advice on the sweet little roo guy  He was just so pretty and perfect and sweet he will make a good breeder but if he can't stand right he probably wont. I'll keep him though I think. I'm already pretty attached  I  sold a White Crested Polish Top Hat Pullet to a lady about 3 months ago and after she had her for about a month she contacted me and said it had been attacked by a hawk! She wasn't injured so much as having wounds but seemed to have brain damage. She sent her back to me to see if I could get her to eat again. The lady had been force feeding her "Boost" mixed with crumbles to keep her alive. She was like a zombie!!!  Well after about a week she finally started to move around and eat again so I kept her for another week till she was acting pretty normal and sent her back. The lady had her for about 10 days and then contacted me again to say she was acting like a zombie again!!!  I told her to bring her back and I would see if I could do anything with her. Well after a few days of wondering what to do I realized the Boost had really high Iron in it. The poor little lassie had Iron Poisoning! From what I read it causes your Central Nervous System to shut down and it turned her into the Zombie. I kept her quite for about a week and now she is acting normal again!!! She won't be going back this time but staying here with me! You can really get super attached when you are caring for an injured animal! I sure hope the little Yorkie will be alright

30/40 eggs are good.

The cracked ones will surprise you! I still have 2/4 cracked eggs developing. I had to toss one since it decided to quit and add a new smell to the bator. 

I had a cracked egg (darn slipper hands when candling). I melted a little candle wax on it and it hatched. I think it was at about 10 days development when I cracked it.

Good luck!

My sweet Buff Orpington Roo died today  I have hatched so many of his babies and he was so gentle and handsome! I am going to miss him. The other roo in the pen beat him up it seems.

It's a bit of a strange thought for me, but it's true. I've creeped myself out with this one.

We only play when the numbers are big--manybe once a year as a lark, and put down a wopping $5!!! 5 times the chance of one ticket but still very slim chances because I do get the numbers.

YEah !!!!  I cracked one at set, over the air cell, so not sure how location , location, location plays here.

We were talking earlier about the benefit of eliminating dairy when trying to control allergies. I realized if I don't eat yogurt I need a very good source of probiotics.  ANd not the stuff I feed my horses please.

A very good probiotic source??

Candled my eggs a few days ago and removed 4 clears with 20 still going strong. I also have 6 eggs in lockdown starting today Hoping to have some cute fuzzy butts by the end of the weekend!!!

WOW!!!!!!!! 

I never realized how many people would be so dedicated to making this thread successful. I confess I don't have much to offer here, or even the time to read all the posts, so usually just have to skip many of the pages and often read only a few or look at pictures.     I have enjoyed some of the humor here, and it is good to see so many willing to offer useful advice and prayers for those asking for it, so just thought I would say so.
