I candled last night, I only took out a couple that had cracks in them. But could only see growth in the blue and green eggs.

Yes, they should not spoil that fast. I do not know what is going on with them, but you should let my pet chicken know that Gabbard packed them badly and that one was stinky on delivery.

I had to moisten one with a q tip to un stick it from the turner. I also had 2 of them drip into the tray. It was so bad that I moved the turner to the other Genesis to clean out the first Genesis.

I am really hoping you get a great hatch!

Take a look at the food...we one had container of food that had a moist spot in the middle and killed all our giant Chiclids. I used to love my fish! I am so sorry for the loss, they can be very special! Just like our other animals. (big and small)

They were in their winter dormant state so they hadn't been fed for 2-3 months. Once water temperatures get to 50 degrees or below, you're not supposed to feed them. I then worried that what if water temperatures got to high and I was supposed to be feeding them, but that wouldn't explain them dying at the same time and after I warmed up the surviving fish, I tried to feed them but they didn't seem interested in the food. I'll try giving some food to them again tomorrow. Ciclids are very pretty, do you still keep them?

Contests! For those of you confused, here is the Celebrety Chicken thread. Celtics egg contest will have a thread by this evening. Its too hard to try and post photos on the google thingies ( some of you have been ingenious about it however, kudos!) So all of the picture contests should have threads. If you fine one that does not, whine about it to me or lor. If its a contest sponsored by someone ( behp Celtic) also PM the photos so we do not miss anything.

Some peopel ahve asked if they can enter the photo contests if they dont want to win, and yes you can. we want to see em anyway, we love chicken eye candy.
