    My single guinea girl has been laying pretty good, we haven't really been looking hard for the nests since the eggs aren't fertile. But we started missing one of our white turkey girls, She had been acting broody but she breaks the eggs so we had been trying to break her. We found her today, she...

    Well, I started hatching keets because we had such a non-exist ant winter and I knew we were going to have a bunch of ticks. We have had a "Tick Bloom" of those microscopic little baby ticks. You really can't even see them individually till you get them up close to your eyes, except when they...

DH remembered a guy who buys hatching eggs from us (he's soo smart, I think I'll keep him) I now have a borrowed Sportsman for the chickens, the guineas can stay in...

    Well it's official I'm stacking eggs. I have 19 guinea eggs (I gave 10 to a broody Cochin), 4 mystery duck eggs, 4 BCM and 2 "Test" eggs from my flock on the top shelf right now. I will be adding to the pile when some W/BW AM get here. Oops. I have been using the Repti Pro mostly as a hatcher...

    UhOh, I got 29 more guinea eggs in the mail today, this time mixed colors! I have a white Cochin that went broody this last week to take some of them, the rest will go into the ReptiPro since it keeps the humidity up better. I set 4 Duck eggs in there on the 17. I work at a Zoo and the eggs...

    Hey I'm all in for trying that---- When I'm thru hatching all the shipped eggs that at the current rate of hatch are costing me an arm and a leg. I have several experiments I want to try over the "Off season" to see what works best for me. (Short of buying a Dickies, which if I had the money...

    Wow so the turner still works with all those on top? I'd think it would burn up the motor or catch and jam. Wow!

    AH HA!! that's cute. So you put the guinea eggs at 14 days+ on the bottom (since you don't have to turn them) and put the eggs you still have to turn on top? Anyone have a pic of how you are stacking these eggs? what about temp differences in the top and bottom layers, won't the top layers...

None of these are fertile, guess the roo wasn't up to it. we will have to wait till next year when all the...

    The eggs I got are pearl and pied pearl and maybe lavender. So I will be looking for some of the Buff/Brown/chocolate eggs too, but I needed to get some started and I got a good deal on these at the perfect time. When I have broodys to raise them, and hopefully teach them to come in at night...

    She's a beautiful girl. The old maids are alittle sad tho, do you have wid turkeys in your area? We have wild turkeys that sometimes come to the fenceline to talk to our turkeys.
