    Bearded Silkie chicks In NY

    Do you ship eggs? I had only 3 bearded silkies. Then a family of racoons wiped out my flock. I would like to replace the silkies once I get things more secure.

    Are small-tiny blood drops safe to eat?

    Some of my customers and I, have found tiny blood drops in my eggs. I just dig them out with the shell, and go on. But they are asking. What do you say/do? (And yes I know that means they are fertile.But is that bad? )

    Silkies

    My roosters are very good and protect their ladies well. There ate 2 differences between Silkies and others breeds is that, due to hawks getting them, they need a covered run, and I believe, More heat in extreme cold.

    Incubator Humidity range for day 1-18

    Thankyou Lazy Gardner. I have skimed that site, but not completely closed because my hatch rate had been 99% -100%. But at a much higher humidity. Now I realize that it was summer, not winter as now. I will re read that. Thankyou.
