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

[ChickenCanoe]

I have seen live balut eggs and they sit on the counter in the store NOT in a refrigerator until the sell.
I have posted pictures of these eggs sitting on the counter two or three times here already.
You can actually even see them in a video I posted too.

I believe you.

This is might help:

The BackYardChickens Forum is a place for members to ask questions, share their experiences, and help each other learn while making new friends.

We've got a huge community, so in order to manage such a large group of diverse people we must enforce certain standards and rules. Underlying these rules is the fact that BackYardChickens is a place where people of different backgrounds and ideas can all feel comfortable participating around their same interest.

Do's

• Be friendly and courteous to all members at all times.
• Respect the BackYardChickens Staff. They dedicate LOTS of volunteer time keeping the forum running smoothly.
• Be nice to newcomers and help them feel welcome.
• Respect that people may have a different political, religious, philosophical and cultural background than you.
• Be very descriptive in the subjects of your new topics and try to stay on topic as you post. Example: do not say "HELP ME!", but instead say "I'm having a problem with xxx yyy and could use some help"
• Link back to BackYardChickens from your site and/or blog, especially if you put a link to another site in your forum signature (see rules on similar sites below)
• Have fun and learn!

Don'ts
This is a list of things you should not do on our board. BackYardChickens Staff will lock or remove topics if there are posts that are contrary to the good of the community. The BackYardChickens staff have many years of combined experience with this community and these rules are based on this experience. The staff love the community, but if a member continues to disregard our guidelines they will be banned from accessing the BackYardChickens forum.

1. Remember this is a family friendly community, so no swearing, foul language, or profanity.
2. Definitely no inappropriate topics, especially "Adult"or innuendo.
3. No Flaming (verbally attacking people or groups of people - e.g. a profession, an organization, a company.)
4. No Trolling (posting to provoke others, luring them to flame or rant). Trolling is sometimes done involuntarily, so please be considerate when posting. NOTE: Do not reply to or quote people who troll or flame. Doing so may also be considered breaking our rules.
5. No Teasing, mocking, ridiculing, or otherwise making fun at other member's expense.
6. No Fighting or excessive arguing. Taking a personal conflict to the forum is unacceptable. "I'm right, you're wrong" threads and posts will be edited or deleted.
7. Do not advertise your products or services outside of the appropriate Buy Sell Trade (BST) areas of the forum.
8. No Bumping or Cross-posting topics. Bumping is posting to move a thread up on the forum list, and cross-posting is posting the same thread in several forums.
9. Do not post overly personal information like your phone number, address, age, or any other overly personal info. Minors especially should not post information that will identify them or their age.
10. Do not promote other websites that are "similar" to BackYardChickens, especially similar forums. Sometimes it may be appropriate to link to another site that has specific information relative to a question, but moderators have to right to remove links and posts at their discretion.
11. Do not bring drama that happens on other forums, websites, social media, etc. to BackYardChickens.
12. Do not solicit donations or charitable requests for yourself or other people or organizations.
13. We strongly discourage religious and political topics and reserve the right to delete them at our discretion. These topics of religion and politics should be confined to the “Random Ramblings” section of the forum.
14. No discussions about animal rights organizations or Cock fighting

I have always tried not to run a foul here but like I said some how I managed it that one time.

I looked it up, there are 3 asian markets near me. I wonder if they sell chicken balut....

 

[ChickenCanoe]

Omg. I can't get caught up. . but @KikisGirls
Your hygrometer/thermometer looks almost like the one I just bought. . and the humidity only read 67% during the salt test instead of 75% like it should.
I bought another digital one that's for reptiles and it doesn't read correctly either.


Luckys eggs weren't blue

I don't think I ever had an accurate hygrometer or at least one that would retain calibration. I weigh eggs instead to insure proper weight loss.
I may buy a good hygrometer soon. Probably one from a humidor company.

I have been on threads that went south. I have not been on one in quite some time though.

BYC is so very friendly and fun and one of the reasons is all the hard work here by the Staff.
