Designer Egg Chain

[elieugene6]

I wouldn't mind taking them. If I were to take them could my eggs that I am offering wait until next week to ship out? I am broke until next week on Wednesday.

Lmiller how many extra wl eggs? I have been watching you post them everywhere and really want some but this is the only forum that I can trade on right now. Since I haven't seperated my breeders yet.

It's not uncommon to get the eggs out a week or so later. I think that's the case with most folks who only have 2 or three hens laying anyway

Wachoo offerin'?

When I put "Chickens, Waterfowl or Gamebirds!! Open to all egg laying feathered friends!!!!" I was thinking about all those reptile eggs out there. I don't want any snakes hatching out in my incubator!!!!

Mine on the current offer. Sorry it took so long.

Yesterday was my work day 14hrs. Then I came home at 2:30am to lock everything up that wasn't already locked up. I did some on my lunch and the dogs were out, so I thought it would be ok. My favorite gosling, my only pomeranian gosling is gone. No feathers that I can tell, I just butchered two extra white and multicolored roos so there are some laying around. The four other goslings were in the henhouse in the corner (hiding from the adult geese). So the only thing I can think of is my pomeranian tried to protect them while they were outside, he had just recently started doing that and whatever it was got him or the adult gander chased him out. I think the pomeranian might have been my only male. He just acted like a male. My guardian dog is still in training and occaisionally likes to chase so she is on a chain out back. Of course he was the one that loved me and would come up and talk and nibble. Its heartbreaking. I was up until 5am looking for him, I knew I wouldn't find him because he would come as soon as he heard my voice no matter where he was or what he was doing. I still had to try though. I knew freeranging was going to loose me something sometime but why my favorite? I haven't lost anything except one hen to a barn cat, which has since been forcibly removed from the area. My guess is the fox that lives on the back of the property. I know a coyote would have gone into the henhouse and taken more. Adult geese aren't any match for them. Nothing will go near the adults. Not even my dogs. Which is why as disgusting as they are they stay in the henhouse. My cats and dogs wont even go in there. Guess whos sitting on the back roof with the rifle tonight? Not my fiance hes working. Would an owl be able to take a gosling that size? They are about as big as my large fowl chickens and definitely bigger than the bantams.

I can't ship until next Wednesday. I haven't hatched many of my large fowl lately but have very good fertility in them. I did hatch out both of the eggs I set 23 days ago. One green egg hatched out a yellow chick and I think I may have gotten a pure jersey giant out of the brown egg. The mixed chicks that I hatched out last fall were great layers of brown eggs, they were sold at auction last month. They layed an egg a day and the roos were 5.5lbs dressed weight at 20weeks. I can ship just large fowl, just bantam if you don't want extras but cannot ship just goose as I only get one egg every other day. The goose eggs are dirty, we have been getting a lot of rain here and due to the windstorm we had my henhouse roof now leaks. I keep giving them fresh bedding but it keeps raining. The large fowl and bantam eggs are almost always perfectly clean.

Bantam: (penned seperately from the large fowl)
