Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat - Part 2 : Chicken Boogaloo.

[7 Biddies]

Not exactly a dumbest thing said but a dumbest chicken related story.....
When i was a teen i had a lady from up the road that had a couple ducks decided she wanted some chickens. She decided it would be fun to hatch some eggs and knew i raised chicks and hatched a lot of eggs.
We talked for a while about where to get an incubator and the whole incubating process and she had mentioned she had been reading up on everything. I gave her two dozen eggs.
A little after a week later she stopped by and said none of her eggs hatched. Mentioned she had trouble with getting any humidity to hold. And she wanted more eggs. A t first i thought she had given up on the eggs because of the humidity issue and i was asking if they were still in the incubator and if so to not give up just yet.
She then blew my mind when she mentioned not having an incubator. She said you said to keep it at 100° for 21 days. We didnt want to wait that long so we used our oven and set it at 300° so they should of hatched in 7 days and yesterday was day 7 so i dont think theyre gonna hatch.

Now, I'm no expert, but I think she may be right; they ain't gonna hatch.

I wish that worked. I suppose it would be the same with human babies, right? Just sit in a hot tub or sauna to shave some time off?

Worked for both of mine.

No way!!!!!!!!!!! Those are not going to hatch! I wonder if you could eat them? Probably not... They'd be burnt. Or rotten.

Would it work with glo-in-the-dark? That would be awesome for my dog so I know where to walk at night!

Hmm, if it works, bet people would it.

Not so cool in those suburban neighborhoods where you can barely fit a mower between 2 houses and everyone has at least one pooch; it'd be like the Northern Lights out there.

This has kind of turned into a chat thread!!

Now, I'm no expert, but I think she may be right; they ain't gonna hatch.

Idk. She may not want to give up on them too soon lol. Its only been 30 years or so lol.

Yeah, it has a little bit. But I'm going to contribute a little more to it. That story about the lady put in the eggs in the oven so far wins the award for the absolutely stupidest thing I have read on this thread so far.

Maybe somehow we could figure out how to get the clapper device in with the feed and when we want to go to bed, we could just clap off.

I want a clapper for the pop door
