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

[ChickenCanoe]

I feel ya, it got down to 30 last night, think I lost most of my dime sized apples

I love the following chart and it may help you. Apples post bloom are supposed to be able to take down to 28 for a brief period so don't cry yet.

Im so confused as to what to order from MPC

Black Penedesencas.
OH, that's right, they don't have them.
They do have partridge penes.

I take it you are looking for ideas.

They have spitzhaubens.
Do they have orloffs?

Their coops are over priced but one of those little coops would be nice as a quarantine or broody coop.

JINX!!! ROFL!!!!

That was my guess too, but I saw it had been taken. What is mg?

monosodium glutemate.....right, Benny?

Or milligram

Usually Monosodium Glutamate is abbreviated as MSG

I alternate and only have wazine and iver right now.   I dont want to send any mites or lice if I got some over winter, since I am not the one cleaning coops and caring for them right now, its best to be cautious. internals are easier to treat than externals by far so I will do both the iver and permeth dust before they go. 

I am not looking forward to tossing all the eggs. Seems like such a waste.

I set the eggs  no waste here

Studies have shown that the amount of ivermectin that gets into eggs is minuscule if at all. Also in some parts ivermectin is used to treat humans. It has literally saved a generation of people from river blindness in the 3rd world.

There is an Amazon warehouse literally in the same town my son lives in, yet he doesn't get his stuff any quicker than I get mine.

It's boring waiting for a hatch. Lets see how high you guys can count before I post.

this is not the games thread, and we dont need to break it that quickly

99 bottles of beer on the wall

"Yho ho ho and a bottle of rum!"

98 bottles of goat milk in the fridge (wishful thinkin)

@Auroradream26 HOLY EGGS!!!!! all are loose saddle air cells but one dont move prayers needed and if you look close the sweet gal I got the goose eggs also sent me Lav AMS! also in the same shape. The heat pack was still warm! That I cant believe! the goose eggs are very wiggly, and look like stuffs floating in them so I think her box may have gotten frozen. Time will tell I guess

Sweet!!
