you guys are killing me! I have empty bators except for ONE LONELY pheasant egg that I am not sure is even alive! LMAO!!

Join the club, except for the pheasant egg

My new ladies are laying well (finally) and I, ever the optimist, checked their first eggs just in case. Not a bullseye in sight *sigh*. And no response to my "duck eggs wanted" ad either :-(

Question.... anyone raise sultans? wondering what their personality is, I love the pure whites.

I have one sultan and she's a sweet girl. She's as calm as docile as my cochins and silkies, but I'm not sure if that's normal.

Even though I never really paid much attention to her, she lets me hold her without complaining.

Sumi I ordered more White Faced Spanish eggs!
I sold all but one hen of my spitz so I can keep the WFS without having to build another pen.
I like the spitz but we love the WFS ROO is gorgeous!

Awesome!

I'm going to apply for an import permit soon...

I have a broody hen. Sigh. She sat on 12 or so eggs. Last night she had moved one spot and was sitting on 5 eggs. Now she is sitting on all of them. That's a whole bunch of eggs for one hen. I'll candle in a week and remove any that aren't fertile.

That is why you should mark the broody's eggs, so you know when she steals any to add to her clutch. Because they do! Mine drove me crackers, moving eggs around boxes and stealing eggs and confusing the heck out of me. Good luck with the hatch!

Dumb question.... HOW do they move an egg from one nest to another. I can't picture it in my mind :/
