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

[BantyChooks]

I'm totally innocent. I didn't have a thing to do with it, wasn't even in town that day, but Thanks just the same 

Wouldn't have been surprised if you were practising for that paternity suit when you're 90

Power has been out a couple hours. Just came back on. I think the eggs will be ok.

That's what I was hoping, and mine forget, as well, but I'd never seen one quite like that.

This chart may give you some insight.

I'm setting these eggs today.

I was wrong...once

I made a mistake once.
I bought a pencil with an eraser on it.

Speaking of Hyacinths, you reminded me that the female at the Montgomery Zoo has been on suicide watch for the past 2 years. Her mate died (I have no idea what killed him) and they keep trying to find a new one. I'm thinking it's not going to work, but I don't know much about Macaws. She along with her mate, the Scarlets, Blue and Golds, and Militarys have been there since the zoo opened, so I know they're all older than 27 years.

...

They can get crazy. We had a scarlet macaw that constantly plucked itself completely bare except the feathers it couldn't reach on its head.
Really ugly bird.

Looks great what is that tree behind it?  I would look around other trees like that.  Also now that you have stressed them by disturbing the soil, I would stop digging for a month to pick them. There should be more coming.

I am so jealous you have them already..

As I said post this on the mushroom thread and you will be a hero.. Grats

Sounds like a plan. Now that I know they are out there I will. Have found false morels here before. Never expected to see a real one. There are several areas that have a similar set up. I'll check around them as well. Problem is the rattle snakes like this environment as well

Today is day 14, I tried to put them in the bathroom and turn on the shower, but it got to humid. The coldest they ever got was 68. I am kinda worried.
