    That's what I was leaning toward.....but I just keep looking through the B/S/T board and for another $8, I can 2 or 3x as many eggs. Darn shipping! So....ummm.....anyone have some EE/Ameraucana eggs, olive eggs, or black/blue/splash marans eggs? Say......8? Is there even anyone within 2...

    Well, I'm not sure about my little splash marans chick. It has stopped sneezing, but seems......off. DH says that it's acting "weird." Everytime I go down to check on them, it's sitting off by itself, whereas before it was trying to snuggle under the older black copper marans chick. It did a...

    Getting the rest of the firewood split and stacked before it gets too hot today! I think we've got around 28 cord in for this winter. I don't know who will be happier about this: DH b/c he won't need to spend his free time on the weekends cutting/hauling or ME b/c DH will actually get to be...

    Well, I think today is the day the chicks will go out. Only if DH will build something to go on the front of the grow-out coop. He thinks that it'll be alright to leave the front open, but there is NO WAYafter we've nursed these things back to health that I'm leaving them that unprotected to...

    Happy weekend everyone! I'm having a blast watching the olympics with my kids.....they were 'swimming' on the bed this morning and doing 'flips' last night during the men's gymnastics. I'm kind of bummed tha I have to miss the womens' gymnastics replay tonight since I'll be at work, but maybe...

    yeah....I'm in the north country. And, erm, if work is as good as I think it'll be tonight (and I probably just jinxed myself there) becase of the weather I don't see how I can say no! I did a quick postage calculation, and it looks like shipping would really be more like $10 for parcel post...

    plus shipping, right? I'm guessing that would be around $20 because of the size. why must you tempt me so??? that's a seriously smoking hot deal!!

    I'm mostly uninformed on the incubator front......but based on the VERY little I've seen/read, the basic hovabators look pretty much the same as the LGs. No? I'm completely open to some 'bator schooling as that sub-forum is overwhelming to a newbie like me. Wading through all the hatch-a-long...

    $40 for no frills. maybe 60 if it had a turner. I know they're out there....the steal-of-a-deal ones......they all seem to be at lest 3 hours away though. I *have* to keep the cost down since I've convinced DH that this will cheaper than buying from a hatchery (and we'd get some cockerals...

    Yes. I've been stalking ebay....you should see my watch list right now. However, I'm finding that the used incubators are going for almost as much as the new ones at TSC once I pay shipping and all that. For $5 more to buy it new and locally (ish), I don't have to worry about undisclosed...

    Michigan

    That's what I probably *should* do, but I'm not known for my patience. I've been checking all summer, and the closest I've found to one is "small. tin." Uhhhh......a tin incubator? TSC has a sign on their LG incuators that says they're they "manager special" and $5 off.....but the...

    The weather is making up for missing us the past few storms! The rain system is centered on my area, and while the arm of it rotates, the middle just sits over our county. My flowers are already perking up! Looked out the front window this morning and saw the real testament to the stress on...

    I'm eyeing up ebay. I recognize the pics from CL, so I'm assuming it's him. I'm just wondering what others think of them.

    Yeah.....and then tell us how many of your spyware/pop-up blockers go off! Does anyone have Ameraucanas from Randy in Muskegon? If so, how do they look? Do they lay a brighter blue egg, or pale blue eggs (obviously not expencting a primary color, but more BLUE than white with a hint of blue)?

    Got to watch the storm last night, and all of its glorious lightning......hit land about 20 miles south of us. I don't begrudge the Manistee area their precipitation, but it would have been nice to get a little more rain. Have to go pick more tomato worms this morning, and more sqaush...

    It's like a meet 'n greet of us MI BYC folks! A chance to put a face to the screen names. Apparently there's one in the beginning of summer, generally hosted in the Lansing area. Potluck lunch, fowl swap, etc. One is in the organizational phase for this fall in a more northerly...

    Ooooh!! I've got bugs too! But not cool ones. I'm done with broccoli for the year now.

    Really? Well that gives me a little optimism! I'm adding the tylan to the water, and have left the 3 of them together. They all came from the same place/brooder when we picked them up, so I just figured that if one had it, they'd all be exposed, so they're all getting the medicine. I think...

    our pool has been a mess this year too. it's GREAT at growing algae though! i think i'm going to scrub the walls down, bleach it well, and put it away. the kids haven't used it since mid-june anyhow! update on thesneezing chick......it's still sneezing, but seems a little more active. I...

    I can now add watery poop to this poor girl's symptoms. IIRC, doesn't that indicate worms? Can you worm a 2wk old chick???? Either way, I'll pick up the Tylan in about an hour......
