Big Thank You to all that bid.... I can definitely afford to get my incubator fixed now. Since this auction went so high, I'm also sending Anh another 5 days worth of eggs and including express shipping/Horizon box on those as well. They are all getting shipped the same as live birds, so they...
G'morning!!!
Tally so far.... 74 (6.16 dozen) silkie & faverolle, 8 peafowl, 4 goose. There is still going to be everything else laid today yet. Unfortunately I have to to work from noon til about 10pm (maybe later if its busy). I'll get everything in and packaged up after that. Amy
I can leave those peafowl and goose eggs out if you don't want them. The peafowl run 28 days and geese are about 28-31 days for incubation. You also need a bit higher humidity on the geese especially. All depends if you want to keep them or have a market to sell the babies. I know day old...
Daily update: grand tally so far... 63 (5.25 dozen) silkie & faverolle, 8 peafowl, 4 goose eggs. Getting all my strips of bubble wrap and paper towel cut now. I think I might have my hands full packing stuff on tuesday morning... I've been labeling all the eggs that I've been gathering as...

Daily update... 46 silkie & faverolle eggs, 4 goose, and 8 peafowl.
After 8+ hours of inconsistent temps and carting the eggs across town, I have 4 chicks out of the shell today so far.
Lol...Well the problem with sorting eggs is that my lil 52 year old mom and 78 year old grandma check on things at the barn while I'm gone at work. I can mark the eggs that I grab in the morning and early afternoon. Even though I tell them to just leave the eggs, they insist they can't set out...
Ok guys.... This is not something I normally do. My first and probably one of the only times selling eggs. The motor and fan on my big old redwood incubator fried on me yesterday. I moved the 300+ eggs in there over to my other one. Its a bit smaller and thus I don't have any more room...
