    Chronicles of the Golden Eggs

    Chronicles of the Golden Eggs

    Thanks for all the notes of encouragement One peep passed today, but all the other 19 are doing great. I have no idea why this one died, I guess had a heart flaw as it showed no signs of weakness or trauma. I moved them in with some silkie chicks, quite the bunch of birds I will take some more...

    Chronicles of the Golden Eggs

    And the final count is 20 healthy babies. The 3 weaker ones did not make it, and two eggs did not hatch. Going to candle/open today to see the cause, but I suspect they just were to weak to open the egg. They are good looking, healthy, energetic birds. James

    Chronicles of the Golden Eggs

    Sorry for the delay, been REALLY busy Put eggs in lock down yesterday and re-candled all of them. I found one more that was infertile and one mid death, so I believe that's 26 that are due to hatch. 2-3 looked a bit off, so I would expect at least 22 chicks at this point. Ill have pics of the...

    So... I want to eat my geese--is there a sticky or link for processing

    The eggs are going along great, lock down is the 24th I believe. All but 3 or 4 eggs are still going strong. 1 was infertile and the rest were early deaths. You can get a road cone at Lowes, Home Depot, TSC sometimes, any place that deals with public safety professions, etc. Some would say, on...
