I'm 6/10th mile off a main truck route, or 2 miles from a service station on that route (I imagine plenty of us rural folks are actually close to roads like that). Anyway, I'll hopefully have several breeds of purebreed hatching eggs, as well as chicks, (& tons of EE mixed eggs & chicks b/c they lay & hatch great), the purebreeds won't be for another couple months but EE/OE under CL roo would be sooner, as in I've got those now even. PM me if you are interested, I'm 1 hr N of Chattanooga TN so they wouldn't have too long of a ride to anywhere in GA from here. (spring/early summer purebreeds to include Heritage BR, Cream Legbar (2 diff roos), & SFH small # at first from black background crested gal, more to follow in summer). These picutes are from back in Sept -- H. BR & SFH have both matured *a lot* since then, but this gives you a general idea what they look like.

We're did yup get your rocks from?

Hmmmmm. That seems a little hinky to me... I would contact Paypal if I were you, to find out exactly what the problem is. I haven't had any problems with mine (knock on wood). As far as I know Paypal payments should be instantaneous.

I used PayPal a couple days ago and payment went through in under an hour. Can you contact PayPal for help?

I have the payment show up within a minute on eBay and paypal. If not it did not go through with me. I made 2 payments this morning back to back and the first one dropped so I made it again.

So I'm learning how to candle.  Today is day 7 (or 8?).  Chicken math effects my ability to tell what day it is, as well as how many there are. 

There is lots of veins in my blue EE eggs and MFLeghorns!  I'm going to candle them all today for a good count.

The CL I bought appear to be duds.  Got 11.  6 light up like big ol blue bulbs.  Since I can see well inside my EE's, I'm going to assume that I am not just missing something inside a blue egg.  3 of the remaining 5 appear to have blood rings and 2 have smudgy stuff inside, looks like they're scrambled.  I left those 5 in the incbtr until Sat.  If nothing changes I will remove them.  I did put them on the far row just in case they have a bacteria.  I don't want that spreading to the MFL's.


I can't hold the egg and take pictures -- but do the descriptions sound as if I am correct in removing the 6?  Should I have also removed the others?

Sounds good. I like your plan.

last night it rained instead of snow and Power outage   omg i ran to my eggs as i got to them power came bacj on and now my bator is working better then ever lol ...that was a close 1   and im glad i remembered to throw someting on before i ran out to eggs in living room i had a house guest sleeping on couch as it was i scared him when i ran in and to think if i was naked too he might be blind LMBO

Nekkid egg women are particularly scary.

Send her a copy of the receipt in case she can spot something wrong. It's possible the address was wrong or she missed the note from pp.

I candled last night and have 11 of 15 Marans from Chiqita developing, Yay! Of my own mutt eggs, I had a few duds and the OE's are impossible to see into, but most are developing nicely. I have some shipped eggs under a broody and I'll candle those if I see her off the nest.

Glad your eggs are okay! Where is the sweating (phew that was close?) emocon?

or the pooping pants or a scared pooping chicken emocon lol

Thanks. I did send my copy of the receipt to her...no reply and it says she has not picked up the money.
Guess it will work out one way or the other........
Thanks everyone for your help.............
Eggs will be toast if she sends them today or tomorrow.......
and sure don't want someone thinking I did not pay fro my order..............
Time to start cleaning, always takes my mind off worries..............
