Haha, I thought it was odd when you said on a previous post you had two days until Friday. I thought it was just a typo or something....

If it sounds real nutty..question me next time please.

Chicken eggs can be interrupted too and survive very well.
And not just at one point but at different stages of development. Eggs left twelve hours cold has had no repercussions on any of my eggs. I have a bantam hen who was left cold for 60 hours at approximately day 5 in the incubation. Embryos are incredibly resilient.

So wait... If I pull a few eggs from my broody hen, I can incubate them? I was worried that they may not hatch because she just has started a few weeks ago. If I move her and her eggs (not her eggs but the eggs of another hen that she is laying on), will she abandon them?

Soooo many questions! Aaahhh!

Duck eggs actually taste really great. They are AWESOME for baking!!!! I prefer duck eggs and goat milk to chicken and regular moo cow milk whenever I bake!!!!

I'm catching up...so shoot me!

About the Great Clam Chowder Debate - Manhattan and New England. You're welcome.

Don't kill me, but I unplug their heat lamp at night
Their brooder stays above 70°F at night, so they are fine.

If it stays above 70 at night, then it's probably just as warm during the day, if not warmer. Why not take it out completely?

I was going to suggest that, never regretted converting to MHP

I LOVE reading that!

Nonsense. The birds like snow.

...kind of... sort of... well, not really, I guess.

Somebody forgot to tell mine...
