    Now that I made a hole in my egg what next?!

    I have learned a lot about raising poultry from successes and failures. When I had a question, I turned to BYC for advice and then followed that advice. Multiple times it was suggested that you stop handling the egg. Believe me, I know how hard that is. I'm sorry that is sounds like things...
