Let he (she) who hath not doneth something equally "duh" casteth the first stone. I spent half a day complaining that my incubator wasn't getting warm. Um, plug it in, stupid. <sigh>
Yeah, that's how I had to do it too and it was a pain. But since I was more a single quote kinda girl, I only had to mess with that once in awhile. Now it's every time. I can live with it - so manny other good things!
By the way, did you know that in a thread the size of this one, your links...
I like the quote setup, especially that it quotes the text only and not every single picture over and over again (lots of folks didn't know to highlight and delete the duplicate pictures from their responses).
But what I DON'T like about that is that we've got so many extra steps. On the old...
@Annjee Um, standing at the incubator saying "cheep cheep cheep" just doesn't work. Ask me how I know - or better yet, don't ask. <sigh>
I happened to have taken an iPhone video of some brand new chicks I had gotten and was raising in the house. So I found that and played it. They couldn't...
@RubyNala97 , who are you kidding? I got some of your eggs to hatch.....how can you say you mark air cells when your eggs are so fresh they don't HAVE air cells?? :lau Took a few days before they started becoming visible. And yep, every loss must have been a girl. I can't believe the total...
I'd eat chocolate at this point if I had to. Yes, you read that right. Haven't been able to swallow since Wednesday. Just four 4 ounce containers of yogurt, some sips of water, and today almost 1/4 cup of chicken noooooodle soup, with the nooooodles mashed up. Oh, and half a banana, mashed, at...
Oh, for heaven's sake! I did read that in your post and still blew it, telling you something you already knew and do. Only excuse I have is I'm hungry. Will that work? Sorry!
@Annjee , another tip I learned here on BYC for marking air cells, especially on shipped eggs, is if the air cells are loose, when you mark the cells use a dotted line for the detached or loose area. Then next time you candle, do the same thing. If and when those areas firm up, you'll know...
@RubyNala97 Yep, boys. Every. Single. One. Of. Them. LOL I had no previous experience with Silkies, so got all excited thinking I had some girls in there. Simple lack of knowledge on my part, that's for sure. But there isn't one of them who ended up out there that didn't have streamers and...
Oh, he's good lookin' just like me!! Same basic hair color and everything!! Um, sadly I have basically the same body shape too. Seriously, he is one good looking little rooster and I just love seeing him....
Oh, I'm absolutely overjoyed to see you again! You have most definitely been missed! I'm sorry that things didn't go well for you over the winter, and hope that you get back 100% soon. This does take some getting used to, but if even I can get it, you can too! Welcome home!
I was going to do that a million times, but if she's got something happening I'm not sure she'd appreciate it. So I just stuck her in my prayers and will wait until I hear something. Your Silkies are just gorgeous. I saw that meme too....made me bust out laughing!
I ended up with the ugliest Silkies ordering from a hatchery. I should have made Ken wait and then gotten some more hatching eggs from one of you instead. Oh, well. They're still cute in their own way, but nowhere near the quality I got from @RubyNala97 last year, even if I did end up with...
