Give me a few minutes to charge my flashlight and I'll take pictures of the clears versus the quitters.

Your handwriting is so nice. Mine looks like chicken scratch.

Sew them onto your clothes.

I think I am going to leave the three quitters is for now just to see how they change in appearance over the next couple of days.

i just completed candling and I’m absolutely sick!! I rechecked temps in my hatcher and put 9 eggs from suspected “cold area” (97.5) to warmer area (99.5-100.7) with fingers crossed that maybe there is still hope!? the 2 that I assisted this morning are in the brooder....1 has curly toes on 1 foot and the other possible crooked neck. total 11 fluffies of 24 that looked good @ lockdown. I only cracked open a couple of the ones that I removed with 1 being being a “goopy late quitter” and another that made it all the way to pip and then DIS.
Batch #2 Day 13 only has about 5-6 eggs that look possible and 3 maybes (of 27 eggs) the rest trashed!
Batch 3 Day 6.....15/15 homegrowns fertile and developing, only about 10/33 shipped look possible. (only trashed 2-3 definitely nots this early. will candle again in a few more days.
unpackaged buttons and while I only ordered 12, they shipped 20! none were visibly damaged and all were cool which surprised me considering shipped during “heatwave”. and in transit or holding for 5 days! i went ahead and set in J12 as they’ve been settling several hours today.
i’ve been checking different areas of my hatching incubator with oral thermometer but went ahead and ordered a 12 pack of small digital thermometers from amazon to keep closer eye for any changes during upcoming hatches!

We can be sick together.

Soooooo pretty!!!!

Thank you!

Just remember there are states that require AI testing. I believe that Virginia is one of those states. Your state NPIP head should be able to assist you with the individual state requirements.

Yes sir i understand!

Congrats!

Yesss that's what my hopes and dreams for a celadon flock are going to produce

Thank you!
