First time hardboiling the eggs. Thanks for the idea zooweemama!

I love hard boiled eggs. I think I will make some devil eggs...

The incubator is massive! And holy cow, 600 eggs? Pozole looks delicious as well.

Yay! Now I understand!

Do the temperaments vary with the sizzles and the silkies a lot? What about frizzles?

My Sizzle is nothing like my Silkies. She is much more skittish and flighty. I like her... just different. She is the only one I have had so dont know if it is typical.

Hello rooster!

Don't have coworkers, but I just raised my prices to $4 per dozen.  Existing customers are still at $3 per dozen.  Have you looked at egg prices in the store?  They have gone up considerably.  With the cost of feed, I'm not giving them away, except to family.

$4.00 a dozen is a great deal.."12 delicious eggs is well worth $4.00"

Mine should start laying any time...not sure what is taking so long? I had to get some from Mary...

I do have Cream Legbars those girls are laying good for me...

they would work too though I was thinking you would get a better color olive with green and brown

Amy Beth. Congrats on all the eggs you went from getting none, to filling the fridge ...

Jason, I hope your daughter has a wonderful 5th birthday..

I am also ready for longer days..I think the heat is much easier to deal with then the wet cold days.

Happy Chock..Beautiful Willies

600 egg incubator.. OMG, that would really get me in trouble :/

I've never had a sizzle. You can't really compare a silkie to a frizzle. I think in the UK they are a distint breed. But here it is just a modifying gene and can be applied to any breed. I have seramas in normal feathers and frizzle (actually I have a silked roo also). I also have a frizzled tolbunt polish mixed in with my normal feathered ones. A sizzle is a frizzled silkie.

Clear as mud?

Sure!
