The humidity is at 61% right now. It was at 50ish until today. Our book says to increase on day 18. The egg looks about only 1/3 full. Lots of light. I don't think I see movement. But then I think I do when I turn the egg in my hand. Could that be just the inerds moving from turing it. ANy...

My Daddy buys those blocks at our red tractor store. The chickens love them. I dropped one out of the back of the truck and it broke 1/4 and 3/4. We gave the small piece to my batams and the big one to daddy's hens. I want to learn how to make them too. I can give a recipe to my 4-h leader...
