What is sleep? I’m keeping a close eye on this one.

I feel you.
I'm feeling it still too.

No liquid should be coming out of an egg when it hatches. It should be dryish.

Well ya’ll, wouldn’t you know it, our newest broody who I could have sworn was not sitting correctly on the experimental eggs I gave her, because I needed the incubator, has four developing What am I going to do with all these chicks???

10 ideal pullets and 2 nn roos and i asked for extra peanuts on there little added note section, but i dont know if they even read those?

Yes they do. We put that we wanted no peanuts and later we thought the same but they said that they saw the note.

I just laughed out loud.

No! No draining liquid you nut. They are suppose to absorb the liquid.

Yes I know but.. there is a lot of excess liquid the chick has had the shell cracked for so long and there are no more blood vessels... usually at this time you would be able to clearly see the chick pressing up against the membrane right..?

All caught up for now, does anyone know anybody who would like to have either a big beautiful French Blue Copper Marans cockerel, or lovely French Black Copper Marans cockerels in the 3 or 4 hour drive from New Orleans, I will deliver. At least one is trying to crow and I really want them all to have good, loving homes. Thanks to all who read this and think about it. They were hatched between April 29 and June 2. Have posted on the Louisiana site to no avail. They are really beautiful birds and have not been overly handled, so should not be people aggressive as Roosters.

Id love some marans! Im only a 3 to 4 hour flight

I just laughed out loud.

They’re on Day 14 Why did I think it would be a good idea to give her those?
