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

[mlm Mike]

Quote: I certainly appreciate it.

My goat really doesn't like being milked. ^.^ She's a pain in my butt. She won't eat when she's on the milking stand.

That's odd, all my goats want to do on the milk stand is eat.

Day 7 on my duck eggs. Looks like two quitters, two clears and maybe a quitter.

Egg in question.

Meanwhile, I was noticing how fresh and green all the pastures look today!

Remind me to show you screenshots of my lovely weather when you're hitting 90° regularly and your grass is half scorched....

Probably because they don't sell turkeys, so i'm not in direct competition with their sales, and if people buy turkeys, they need turkey feed....

I'm sure you're right.

...

I hope you didn't suffer any damages.

Agreed, I read the 95 as 98 the first time around.

. Not ideal but with the high heat the cooler I was less concerned about.

Not really. I'm sure half of the stuff not bolted down blew into the next county.

While you don't want it to be 95 very long, that won't kill them but 105 for any length of time will. And if the thermometer isn't accurate, 104 could easily be 105.

The fields never completely browned out with this warm winter.

I think you'll change your mind next winter when there's a good metre of snow on the ground and you can't walk in it unless you duck tape your snowpants to your boots, because it'll push them up otherwise....

Lovely birds, CC!

I'd wait till day 10.

Ten more days!!! Ten more da..... Ugh this takes FOREVER!

Lovely birds, CC!

Thanks. I love them. There's another big free range flock on the other side of the property and a couple pens of Penedesencas.

THE HEAT NEVER BOTHERED ME ANYWAY.
