EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Fire Ant Farm]

As to not be too much of a downer, I am going to post a link to a post of mine.

I don't want to re-type it and do not want to dwell on it..

Hope the test turns out negative.

Sweet! I love it when people get carried away talking about something I'm curious about.... Great for learning, eh.

I bet you get a ton of raised eyebrows. I'd love to have more, I just don't have room....

I'm actually only feeding about 50lbs of feed to my birds every week and a half or so. They're getting a ton of feed from bugs and grass... Pushes my feed bill down to a lovely level.


You said "You loose"
There is a big difference between loose and lose....


Nope.

Explain!

Awwww. You haven't hugged a chicken yet today...have you?

No but one is snuggling comfortably in my stomach!

I have enough room for 50000 x 100 chickens, but I don't think my husband would appreciate that. And I wouldn't have enough buildings for winter...lol.

I don't know exactly how much I'm feeding at the moment. DH brought this and dumped it where I ripped out the large maple tree. They had seed wheat left over.
Works for me! They've eaten maybe half. Nice heavy wheat. They still like millet better. Fussy chickens. They're eating a bag of starter ever week or so.

You haven't lived until you've hugged a chicken!

Come on down...the price is right! You can live in the other house.

Well that was a record readback for me. Spent the past 3 days catching up. Most of the time if I'm away for more than a few days and it's over a thousand post I skip to the end.

(I'm virtually hugging chickens by pulling up photos - trying to get my BP down after this morning's meetings...)
