Wait, I probably do smell like a horse

"If it walks like....."
 
I just wonder how they incubate them?



OH OH OH OH! I KNOW! PICK ME!


They have incubation houses. It's a business there, to go get your eggs hatched by an incubation family. They build long, long cob ovens, having fires at one end. The vacuum of the air pulls it through the cob works of the house to prevent hot spots. They build racks over the cob oven length, with reed mats hanging down over the sides to hold in the heat, and the whole thing gets tilted back and forth on racks.

At least that's what I got sent pictures of when I donated to heifer international.


I've seen pictures of incubation houses in asian countries where they put the eggs in clay pots filled with sand, and bury them in hot ashes, the entire pot gets tilted for turning.

The only sucky thing is there is always someone there. No sleep!


Thank you! :thumbsup

Lost my quotes again. @kajira
 the only thing better than chicken hugs are probably goat hugs... :D

And what about Human hugs?
 
It still stumbles a bit, but I think it will be fine.... :yesss:
Crisis averted, and I'm very glad I didn't just snap its neck to end the thrashing about like I nearly did.

:thumbsup

I'm done with my read back. And now I am totally craving chocolate chip cookie dough. SUMPIN' BAD.

Well, I have cookie dough. Why don't you? :hu
Lol. I look older than I am, have for quite sometime now. We got asked if we had kids last month. :th
My sister made cookies today, then she made peanut butter whipped cream and made cookie sandwiches. :drool

My husband mainly hates it cause we have trucks and trailers but yet I use my fancy schmancy (expensive) SUV like a truck :hu as far as I'm concerned if it's mine I'm going to use it like it is, if you don't like it then don't get me a fancy -get me a truck
same thing here. I keep telling him my car is a diesel so therefore it is a truck. :hu He doesn't seem to agree :gig
