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

[Pensmaster]

Good evening all. Just got in the house, had a shower and attempting a read back. Another long day but at 75 degrees I'll take it and be happy. Hope all is well here.

I thought we were doing well with 63* and sunny.

I hope everyone has had a good day. Fire and echo got to go outside for the first time today. We left them after a few hours, and will soon be back to feed. I am nervous like a mom sending her kid off by themselves for the first time

They had a blast.

Love them!!!!

I'm getting my new babies tomorrow.

PIGGIES!!!! so cute!!!

My worst nightmare as a chicken owner has finally come true..... Poultry lice

I can handle blood guts puke poop sputum but not lice

I bought permetherin and Elector PSP even though it was ridiculously expensive. Tried the permetherin first but was gagging from the smell-just like gasoline fumes. Felt like it was an impossible project to tackle-mostly by myself and one handed. Came up with a system that made it a little more streamline but still disgusting. Laureen is in Vegas so i am hoping she will be back tomorrow and help me with whatever I cant do myself. The wrist say no more tonight so I will enjoy a bottle of wine and live to fight again tomorrow

any suggestions or treatment that have worked for any of you-please share. I am bat chit crazy right now with my skin crawling!!!

scratches head, I didnt have major issues with the goats having them lol I just put stuff on them and said I be back in a week to do it again

Unheard of for February but I'm not complaining. Loved being in a t-shirt.
