:frow We flooded at my place in Zachary too. 2ft in my trailer Means 5 in the coops. I only have a handful of birds left, but like my dear friend @lakones these few are all I can manage for a little while. My thoughts and Prayers are with all of you whom this water is moving Toward right now.

:clap Cool!

:lau certainly not!

My hubby too, he usually sleeps right thru any racket I make after he's in bed, but during storms he had trouble sleeping. I love the rain myself but that storm was dangerous and thats a bit different.

Xs2! That was a rather rough one, hope everyone's high and dry!

I mark air cells, and I only use four times per incubation. Set day, 7, 14 and 18. You might see another dotted line from shipping damage, I've seen people do that but not more than that for a simple local set. Handling the eggs can cause damage if ur not careful. Clean hands r a must, and you...

30 isnt a bad # by my standards at all, more important than numbers IMO, watch the growth of the air cell. If you trace them while candling on days set 7, 14, and 18 then post pics, I would help you judge your moisture loss.

Your correct. White feathers breaking up the usual backround color. One of the issues I had with my Cayuga. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/945901/mottled-ameraucana-thread

OH NO! :fl it's nothing serious! These are my First broodies looks like they crushed one chick each and the turkey booted one chick who was eaten by coopmates... Pretty grizzly and I freaked out n stole all the eggs. But I got to thinkin how each of these girls have sat for two n half...

So I stole All my broodys eggs cuz I had a couple dead chicks, well they immediately went back to their nests... So I decided to let each of them try raising babies that had their legs under them. Last night I gave each of them two CM cockrels, from my hatch on Saturday. The turkey completely...

:frow Good to see so many of our people checking in! I guess y'all have figured out by now that when I'm over a wk without posting Busy isn't the word for the breakneck speed im running. April first I had whittled down to only 32 birds, now we're up to 130, waitin on two more piped eggs...

:highfive: no prob I've only hatched about 200 in the las six months :hide The Windows are good, but Think about this, Web Cams... ;) :welcome Back! :welcome ! :hit so sorry! :fl maybe next spring or summer ull b able to restart, I *think* a yr is what I've been told :hit

Different boxes for breeds that are removable but keep the diff eggs seperated so that if u get an abnormality it's easier to track where it occurs. :highfive: I usually cook the clears I pull to feed to the birds so I break each one and have a very good idea of what I pull. If theyre n...

Next set! My first set of Shipped, call duck eggs!

I have minimal experience w bad toes. Chick shoes made of band aids are best for correction altho it has to b done n the first day or two. I had one chick back in December who nearly servered his toe in the bator, but now u can't even tell it was only hangin by a string. As far as what caused...
