I've never had the need for the chalk you mentioned. What's the base?

I don't know off top my head. Try Tractor Supply and look up livestock marker. Amazon has one similar to mine. I marked points on my horses in training to help me focus on what I wanted to make move.

I haven't posted in this thread today, its day 21 of my very first set of eggs! Well, my second on day 9-10 of my first the power went out for over 24 hours.

I think I messed up, the humidity is low. Can I add water now?

If you need to you need to but be careful not to let lots of heat and humidity out.

Just bought some of the tiny bands thanks- I was not aware they had them that small, do you think they are small enough for day olds? I will certainly find out but I'm curious. I get nervous cutting the bands off, I use nail clippers and still think they'll break their legs I'm not very strong and it freaks me out. I thought about painting the boys heads but what I really need are boy, special breed, and pullets so I got pink and blue and then the keepers are I banded for me to keep like a bird hoarder. I have 2 I'm keeping for sure from this last hatch and they'll be the first in bands when they show up cause I swear It makes me nuts not knowing which is which lol. I like us to handle the keepers lots and not have them bought up hehe. I'm excited for the weed ends Olive egger hatch!

I actually use the the little girls hair ties like below. Usually two people, one to hold the bird and the other does the banding. Since they stretch like a rubber band I usually go around there leg three times for day olds.

Cereal is the worst food you csn eat!

Unfortunately, working sixty to sixty five hours during the week, a lot of my food is not good for me. I don't like to eat for a couple of hours in the morning especially when I start at 5:15, and dry cereal is easy on the days when fruit and yogurt don't appeal. I wish I could cook and have nice meals, but I would have to be a wife or hire the equivalent if I could afford it for that to happen.

2 eggs sunny side up in olive oil, 1 tomato and and a small cucumber sliced a nice piece of good cheese and if you insist a slice of good bred, followed with a cup of coffee some almonds and nuts and one date will give you an EXCELENT breakfast in 10 minutes of preparation!

This is the song that never ends!
Yes, it goes on and on, my friend!
Some people started singing it
Not knowing what it was!
And they'll continue singing it forever just because...

I finally finished cleaning the coop, collecting eggs, cleaning and filling food and water containers, giving the dog and I a shower and now I am picking out any remaining splinters. I managed to break the rake in half. That was fun!
