I could hatch duc eggs, if I knew someone was going to stuff them and sell them to rich mucky-mucks from the city...






I am introducing the 2017 Chanticler Club Champions to everyone today. I hope you like them..

send me one too while you're at it

ok!!

I don't know why I'm so friggin' tired this week. Just finished all my "must do" chores (though there are plenty of "should do" chores still left). Dax, one of those tasks was to finish one of the big new MHPs, so I took more photos. (I won't narrate this time - all the text in the last one would apply.) The tubing is actually from a food grade self-draining hose that I had around that had gotten damaged, so I'm repurposing it (too expensive to buy and then cut up for that purpose) - so just be creative with whatever you have to take care of the sharp edges. Duct tape is fine, but you'll need multiple multiple layers.

Warning - photo bomb.

Hello!

I'm new to BYC and hatching in general, so I'm looking for a little advice with a Muscovy duck egg problem?

WELCOME TO BYC!!!!!

Thanks!
Does this look to be twins or a single chick? One dark blob seems to be darker than the other IRL, but I'm not sure what's going on with this wild rejected 'scovy egg

looks like a double, which is probably why the mom kicked it out, unfortunately they dont usually do well, not enough space and one or both will die

yeah but then she has to worry about watering and caring for it..

What about an Alex and Ani-they have a sale going on right now on their bracelets. Really good deals-something she would have forever and a reminder of strength healing and friendship. They all represent something different.... or maybe a cookie bouquet or edible fruit arrangement??

alex and ani is a nice idea

Or how about a gift certificate we could all chip in on for Sally for eggs from MyPetChicken

thats an idea

Stupid coyotes are in close tonight. Hoping my fencing holds up.

uh oh, update??

No buying dead flowers here either, plants are much nicer, don't usually have to throw them away.
Never heard of 'Alex & Ani' either, never heard of a 'Bi Lo' either, thought that the chick down south when I was looking for a liquor store that sold Tim Smith's from 'the moonshiner's' moonshine was sending me to a crack house, DW asked where do we go? IDK, left right left through the stop light 'way back behind the 'bi low', is what she said, and laughed...took her directions, scared, NY plates in South Carolina...Holy crap! BIG store sign 'Bi-Lo"!! and right back way behind it, biggest nicest darn liquor store I've ever seen. Had the longest conversation ever with the owner, awesome! He had in the parking lot the same truck I had back at home, '73 GMC Jimmy full convertible, like a giant jeep his was absolutely beautiful, mine is a 4x4 though, great conversation.

Maybe we all could pledge some eggs, shipped? I don't have anything special, just pure naked necks and white giants, but a lot of us have some super cool breeds. I'd be in if she wanted them....? We could send her hundreds of eggs, hope she has a huge cabinet!!

Great idea , better than flowers.

lol,

this is an alex and ani bracelet

That is why I messaged MPC thinking we could all PayPal a couple of bucks or more if you wanted, and then it all goes in one certificate and no one on the thread knows who gave what. It is not important anyway as everyone is in a different position.

off to a dental appointment. BBL

have fun!
