➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Yes, I would say you really NEED to, given the recent history of unexplained deaths in your flock. Without a doubt I would be looking at fixing your problems on the inside before throwing money at more chicks and eggs.
IMHO bad feed seems like a cop-out, especially if it looked and smelled totally fine. A lot more birds would be keeling over if old feed alone was that deadly.

Part of why that was so controversial was because it was locked without any chance for someone to disagree (and it seems a lot of people did not agree) or debate the content any further.

The eggs I am getting are free unless they let me keep some chicks. The breeder had overflow of eggs.

I can lock a thread if I want to. I have that perk, after all.

Yes...Cy made a thread and locked it so no one could reply.
I get the locking of threads for maybe pictures only but you can't really lock a thread after you write up something.

Ok well I see the controversy in that especially when it makes a point people are bound to have an opinion on.

And I forgot abou Glitters kick a$$ couch! I could sure use one of those bad boys to relax on right now!

But I can though, that's the thing.
There is nothing stopping me from locking any thread I create.

Cy remind me.
How many eggs did you set this last time and how many hatched?

23 I think.
9 hatched. Most were shipped.

All PFM can lock threads but what I mean is I don't get the point.
I don't think it is fair to just cut people off when you have had enough.

And 8 died?

Sure you can, lots of us do, but don’t be surprised when people get pissed that they can’t disagree with your (seemingly unpopular) opinion.

Drives me nutty when the mods lock threads too.

I'm wondering why the other 13 didn't hatch.
Did you keep track of what days they quit on or if they even developed?
If it was more of a certain breed that quit?
