Maybe, maybe not. However, one of the people I live with has dementia.... So that kind of narrows down the suspects.

X2. For the money, yes. The Incuview blows all the others away. And they have a discussion right here on BYC! https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/852619/incuview-incubator Even with the incuview there is a learning curve. And, with more expensive incubators the learning curve might be less...

Frankly? That looks like a headache in a box. Have you looked at the Incuview? https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/852619/incuview-incubator

Today. Most of the chicks are growing pretty fast. We have a runt who was indistinguishable from the other Jersey Giants at hatch, but developed what looks like a hernia or something about four hours after hatch. (I checked for open navels or any other deformity at hatch and spotted nothing odd...

I have either nineteen or twenty. I didn't count them as they were hatching and now I can't! LOL!

Three day old chicks. They spent the night in the wool hen. This is only the third time I have tried a wool hen, and these are the youngest chicks I have had outside with no heat lamp. These chicks are three days old and they have been outside 24 hours straight in 60 - 70 degree weather. There...

Dateline: YESTERDAY: Commotion in the back room. I run just as fast as I can - which is not very fast. Open the door to see this little guy in Momo's mouth. I yell. Kitty drops the chick but stays in hunt mode. I swept the chick up so fast and run to the laundry room. Ten chicks running loose...

Me too! Three, actually!

Too far for me, sorry.

Where are you located?

OK so... While we're at it? It's WATTLES. Waddle is what a duck does. And certain fluffy butt Orpingtons. And pregnant ladies.

The hatcheries are basically just ripping people off. There was a person on the Jersey Giants thread recently who was asking why her Giants were smaller than her Brahmas. Yep. She got them from a hatchery. And their feet are "pinkish" not yellow.

Is that bumblefoot? I've always seen pics of bumblefoot with the lesion on the bottom of the foot... but other than the exact site this looks like bumblefoot. Do a search here for bumblefoot and you should get lots of hits on how to treat it.

Gotta' love those 4H kids! :D

Ha ha LOVE your user name! I am guessing you're in Dragon's Laire? I'm in Druim Doineann!

Yes, I am hoping to network with other Jersey Giant keepers in Washington. But I think the link you shared me took me to an error page. I think he's got it set to friends only?

Yep. Riding those motorized carts... It's a bit to get used to, but... when your friends say "Of COURSE YOU should be riding that!!" it's a pretty big clue that it's OK. :p

Agreed. Asking is always the best policy. I think patronizing is when someone says "Here, let me do that" or, they don't even ask... As far as the creepy "helpful" guys, it's not even that they ask to help. They pretty much trip all over themselves in a creepy way. Y'know.. like you're the...

Well, ski poles look very similar. But aren't designed for the purpose that trekking poles are. So... yeah... I'll stick with my trekking poles. :D Yeah. I've been using those motorized carts at stores. On one level it's fun. On another level, I feel I need to keep my sticks visible so as...
