Has it shrink wrapped?!!?
That happened to me today! I posted because I used vitamin e from one of my vitamins to moisten it. Not sure if it’s ok or not but it worked like a charm.- LABElle1225

My son (and husband) were so excited to surprise me with incubated eggs and all I kept thinking was that Silkie only left 2 weeks ago!! We’re on wooded acreage with a pond. My Roos need to be alert bad asses. Sadly the silkies either can’t see or spend the day ambushing the gals.- LABElle1225
