    Does this one look dead ? Day 32

    I was thinking the same and was about to suggest inboxing you instead. Aww I love my featherfootses 🥰. And d’uccles have such pretty feathers. I’ll send you an inbox shortly.

    Does this one look dead ? Day 32

    Yup, fair dinkum true blue, that’s me 😁. I didn’t think the America’s were originally intended as a penal colony though was it? I know British and French Guiana and most of Georgia were so... I don’t know what I’m talking about, as usual lol. Always willing to learn though, that’s why I’m here...

    I understand with brahmas, and bantams have had a bad rap for aggression over the years (totally unwarranted in my experience), but silkies???? 🤣

    Yeah, I know what you mean. They have beautiful plumage though. I’d have one if it were super docile. We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving here in Australia so he would have a carefree life. And yeah, I’m with you, eating a mascot would be a bit weird lol.

    Does this one look dead ? Day 32

    I just about had to change my pants the first time I saw a turkey too. It was free ranging in my friends backyard when I was little 🤣

    Lmao I bet you weren’t the only one. For me it’s geese. Oh, and swans. Who knew swans could be so darn aggressive?!

    I had a look at your previous threads and it looks like you have Muscovy duck eggs. Correct me if I’m wrong. Muscovy eggs take about 35 days to hatch apparently. I think I see a vein near the top of your pic and possible some just past the halfway mark toward the bottom and again near the...

    Is this egg fertile?

    Hi everyone, just a quick update. The eggs are in an incubator now, I was silly enough to add more a week after the first lot so I will need to set up a hatching bator and a second brooder. All fertilised eggs are doing well and unfertilised eggs removed. On day 13 with some eggs and day 6 with...

    Is this egg fertile?

    Wow, that was fast. I thought you’d be waiting ‘til morning before anyone came to look at the transformer. At this point it’s almost not worth trying to get any sleep, you’d only get about 3 hrs if you went to sleep now, let alone with getting your cameras running again 😔

    Is this egg fertile?

    Ooh, that doesn’t sound good. Not much you can do though I guess. Chickens will be ok, don’t worry. It’s just what you needed the night before a long trip huh? /s

    Is this egg fertile?

    Oh! My dad was a deep sea fisherman (lines, NOT nets), lobsters in the off season. Snapper and lobsters are my fave too. I’m also a nature lover and finding new spots whenever possible, especially if they’re around water. Anyhow, early start for you tomorrow. Sleep well and hopefully you’ll be...

    Is this egg fertile?

    Oh wow, they’re tiny and just gorgeous 😍😍. They will be pretty chicks, lucky you 🥰. If you ever make it over here, let me know. It’s a great place to visit, so much to see and something for everyone regardless of what you like. Saltwater, freshwater, rainforest, dry bush, desert, snow, we have...

    Is this egg fertile?

    Hehe yeah, it is eggciting! It looks like you’ve got the candling down pat 😊 well done. The pics are fuzzy but I can see they all look good for putting under her. It’s easier if you lay the phone down (I use a nice soft bed in case I drop an egg) with the flashlight facing up and lay the egg on...

    Is this egg fertile?

    Hahaha love the accent lol. Yes, put the eggs against the phone’s flashlight and check for cracks in shell, sometimes you can’t see a crack without candling, and check for detached air sacs. If everything looks good, put them under her and candle again in 5 days. You’ve got it right 😊. I’m...
