She has broken English and very straight forward. Her Son is my contact and shows her my pictures and then she gets on the phone and tells me what I needed to know...

Well there's always something to all those old wives tales and ways.

Hopefully when and if I'm old someone will be nice like that to me.

I hope so too..It doesn't take much time to make a person feel wanted and valued. I always tell her I needed her expert advice too..She loves it..
Many times she is correct though.
She calls me Shanna.......

I'm getting worried if these eggs don't pip soon I'll be stuck with them in my Brooder box if they don't hatch before the window of opportunity to give them to her closes...

Weren't they all set within 2 days? Generally if they don't hatch by day 22 I get rid of them.

I guess you were not following. Elsa and Jenny started laying eggs in the crate too! ..Staggered hatch. I tossed out 4 viable eggs but way to early. Yesterday I removed the last 3 eggs so Bonnie would begin to feed her 4 hatched. One egg was dead and these two are alive. I think the one is internally pipped but I'll know more tonight in the dark.
Definitely not an ideal situation at all...

I guess I could go into the bathroom and Candle them? I will once my Son is done in there...
