EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Fire Ant Farm]

I saw veins in THREE Hona eggs when I just looked quick!!

@campingshaws

NVM, four eggs.

@DwayneNLiz @MotorcycleChick I forget which one of you told me to keep the cracked, rolling AC one. Well, it has veins....

Meanwhile, I think my chickens have been spying through the window or one of them has an account on BYC - I got a total boycott on eggs from any of the NN pens. (Just 4 Marans and one olive - don't want their babies right now). Argh!

Time to hunker down for the cold. Calling for wind chills of -18 tomorrow and 2-4 inches of snow. Kids are already on a 2 hour delay.

Son laughs when schools delay or close for accumulations like that. In WI, where he's lived for 15+ years, 4" doesn't even qualify as a nuisance.

Thank you my long distance friend
But character like, CC, You, and if I may say, me are more kind of the solid ones, I was watching we were the only 3 that didn't change their Avatar pic. (Except you that you once change yours, basically to the same one! ) that says something. .....

Hey, I have never changed mine.

BTW I grew something in my garden called a Jerusalem artichoke. Would you suggest a simple way to fix it that might be good for me to try it?

They are starting to try and stand, and then pass back out! The other two eggs are hatching as I write this!

Ok, after hatch question! Lol. One of the chicks neck seems to be floppy, the first to hatch seemed a bit like that at first but she's taking a bit longer to strengthen up. Normal?

@casportponyThe hen that I cleaned her butt and gave ivermectin to on Sunday is not up on the roost, but down by the hardware cloth opening on the floor of the coop. I tried to put her up after taking a couple of photos for you, but she went back to where she had been. I am worried especially since she is one of my four breeders for the spring.
I am going to read back and then try again to post pictures. BYC is giving me fits.
