Peeps thank you for the roos, I have a new favorite thing- YOUR ROOS, they were very happy to get out of the truck and in a pen, and all so tame.

I came home and found , that the husband, or the son, or the nephews (no one will confess)- some one was trying to be nice and clean out the one of the bators and they changed the tempature on my EMU and RHEA eggs, that I hav been sitting on for almost 55 days,( manually turning about 5 times a day) and the temp was on 108, when I got here....................... The rhea eggs were hatching on Tuesday. and the EMU would be hatched by the 5th. I am almost ready to throw all of the bators away! ( i have a 3 cabinet bators, 2 home made and one GQF, and one of the homemades ones I had emu/rhea eggs in the top and i put freshy hatch chicks/ducks/quail in the bottom, for about 72 hours before I move them to the broaders. I had 5 ducks, in there that just hatched on thursday........... Appreciate someone trying to help----------------- BUT......... I not sure for how long the temp was high, but cooled the bator down and left them in there, the smell this morning is pretty bad, so I will be thowing them out.
. We had a blast and thanks Ladybug for hosting it. It was so nice to meet everyone and talk. I brought my husband so I would behave and not buy as much and ending up buying more because he was there. Shane picked up 13 of Ladybugs duck eggs, 2 different sets of quail trio and a pair of Light Brahma. I bought 2 khaki campbell ducks for my friend to. So much for not getting to many. Lisa thanks for the quail eggs
