That's ok - you can stop at Buckee's and get some more!
Yes and no. It's always a pain not knowing who laid what, and I don't trap nest (too hot too often here, with me gone all day - I'd end up with dead birds). Mother Earth News had an article on DIY trap nests this month...
I've read a number of places to not add new genetics unless you have a VERY good reason - that sometimes it's better to be patient and work with what you have over time...
Also have read to add any new genetics in a side project first in case you don't like what you get. Have mostly heard it from folks who learned the hard way...
I've had enough eggs that varied a lot in the humidity they needed that I just weigh now.
@Sally Sunshine , @meltel -
@Pensmaster - I keep falling as well, though I think that's because I'm too tired...
@kajira - hoping this week is good for you.
How'd that work out for you?
x2!!!!
Pretty!!!!
I've been working to get the growout tractor done, and it's been taking forever - all these little things that take time. But it's together and covered now. Still need to add sweet PDZ to the roost platform, bedding to the bottom, feeder and waterer with chains, and the aprons. (Oh, and the door spring - need to head to Lowes for that). Came in for a quick lunch of brisket, but that might have been a mistake. I think I'm slipping into a food coma.
