    Well if it lost 11-13% of it's weight while incubating it would be upper 50's or 60 grams at hatch.Thanks for the condolences but there is many more eggs in the bator and I'm still getting eggs from them. Next year the male should handle 3 hens easily and hopefully he won't be so agressive and...

    Blue Creek, I don't make pets out of my peas here. They are very used to me and are not flighty when I'm around and many I can get within a foot of while they are on their perches or actually touch them and they do not try to get away but imprinting changes the pea and dependency on me which I...

    Yoda,forgot to say my first good egg is a Taupe and it will be by itself for awhile as the other 6 eggs put in the same time were no good.But 6 days later it should have plenty of company.
