I definitely will. They cracked a bit while cooking so i think they may be over done, but could also be due to the rapid heat...now I have them in the ice bath for 5 minutes.
Omg...I will never boil eggs the same way again. That was INCREDIBLY EASY. Instant pot 5 min, slow vent 5 min then ice bath 5 min.
5 minutes before the deadline and I finished my LAST research paper! 34 pages with 25 of those pages written today.
I still have homework and a quiz due in an hour, yay me.
I am just SICK at my stomach!
Power failure to the outlet for my cabinet incubator thru the night.
Discovered it early this morning...temperature had dropped to 61 degrees. Replaced the outlet and the incubator is recovering temperature. Good thing we're had extra outlet boxes!
The Easter HAL Chicks that hatched thru the night in the hatching tray were chilled along with three pips. Moved them to a ready incubator on the other side of the room and chicks are recovering...not sure on the pips. The rest of the eggs may be dis. Time will tell.
There are three trays incubating...that may be ruined. Waiting for the temp to reach a high enough degree to stimulate movement during a test candle.
The duck tray has 31 eggs ready to go to lockdown tomorrow for hatch on April 25.
A second tray has 19 Columbian Wyandotte eggs from Idaho, 11 Delaware bantam eggs and 35 of my eggs. These were due to hatch April 27.
The third tray has28 CW eggs from Idaho and 41 of my eggs due to hatch May 2. I had just candled these earlier in the week.
I am reeling.....going out to candle now.
I truly hope you caught it early enough that the eggs will make it.
Happy Easter!
Like how you'd steam veggies, but eggs instead.
It's awesome. The yolks are always perfect and yellow, no grey/green discoloration, and the eggs peel way easier after a nice ice bath. I use duck eggs and mine peel really easily, but sounds like that may not always be the case.
Oh noooo! I'm so sry to hear about that happening!
We had four days to write the rest of the paper, but also were expected to take an exam, plus other matters came up that it had to be pushed to the side. (I had gotten 9 pages done the weekend before) So I wrote the remaining 25 pages yesterday. The professors love making things due on holiday weekends because then people forget and it’s less grading for them.LOL well she hasn’t actually given me any yet but I just mean I am hopefully getting some eventually. I bought an incubator last month because of her LOL still need to build the quail cages and do a million other things but it is definitely happening eventually lol
And they sure seem like it!!
Yeah, most of the roos online did look really dark, but are they supposed to be splotchy like that one? Light blue with some dark blue wing patches and splotchiness??
Definitely weird!!
She is cute though
True. Same for the Andalusian too.
I doubt she could eat 4 omelettes alone
I do not think it is nit picky or over reactive at all!! That is definitely not what you ordered!! Plus they might like to know what their birds are throwing/their genetics are producing if she IS really a BCM. I say definitely email.
Do it! Lol I am sure they will want to know.
This is true too.
Good luck! Mine weren’t too bad with the ice bath.
Would be two be getting too crowded? Lol
OMG that is a lot of work!! Especially for one day!!
Ah that sucks!! Also sucks he’d give questions that are impossible to answer ha but that’s good about the quiz.
Yay!I kept thinking all morning about @Texas Kiki and her incubated, cooled then refridgerated Balut eggs....that surely some would be alive.
Don't know how long the incubator had been off, but it cooled down significantly.
16 of the 31 ducklings were wiggling and moving while one was definitely DIS since the last candling. Left the other 14 just in case I missed something.
Same with the other two trays...some movement in many of the eggs so I left most of those on the tray and pulled only the ones not up to the development date since the last candling....about 15 eggs total.
As for the Easter hatch...lost the one really chilled chick, but the two pippers had hatched and there are 5 more pipped!
BIG sigh of relief....we may just be okay!
It is amazing what eggs can take near the end. I had a turkey hen that hatched 8 of 11 eggs by the time she left the nest. On her way to the coop, she stopped and picked a fight through the fence with my dog. Her poults ere hidden in the grass while they fought. I grabbed up the poults and put them in the brooder. When the hen finished fighting with the dog she was frantic trying to find her missing poults.I am just SICK at my stomach!
