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

[Akrnaf2]

Pen, in my eyes it is more logical to invest the time and effort to incubate a double purpose breed instead of those mutts.
I assume that this mutts are for egg or meat, so is the double purpose, but with one significant difference, the pure breed have the POTENTIAL to be sold for profit something that the mutt surly don't.

Many of us enjoy keeping mutts as pets or for lawn ornaments, if your purebreds are penned.
Some of my favourite/healthiest birds are mutts.

Sometimes it's just fun to throw some random eggs in the incubator and see whatcha get this time.

Agree, if that is the reason.

I deal there once in a while; bought my Stihl chainsaw from them. I'll check them out. I saw those videos; not convinced the attachment would handle the volume; big difference in 5-6" of gravel on dirt/grass and 1/2" of mud/gravel on concrete.

you'd be surprised, but i also have only seen the commercial grade ones in use
out town uses them at the end of the snow season to get the sand/salt/gravel from the town plows out of the lawns of people in corner lots

Good morning everyone!

Good morning Daxi

I hope you have a great day

Is there much difference between the 610 and the 700 or 710? I know there's a bunch more zoom from like 18 to 30 but for the average person how much difference is that? I have a digital camera but the shutter does not open right all the time so it has to be replaced.

probably has something to do with optical vs digital zoom, you want more optical, once the digital kicks in it can get grainy

Good morning Abi and Banty. Shalom Benny.

Shalom and peace on you dear!

I took this pic from the window below (yes, whites, in another season,) except a bit lower. I didn't have a photo taken from that exact spot in my files and can't get a current one right now. I use a 12x optical zoom. Near full zoom:

Zoomed out: (circled spot is where the deer were)

Thanks, nice picture. I bet that makes you really miss the green. Like going to southern LA in the third year of the drought we had a few years ago. Everything was so brown dried out and dying here, and the fields there were so green.

I don't have any pics of the older ones. I do have some pics of the 5 younger chicks though. I'm thinking it's 2 boys and 3 girls.

They are pretty. Are the older ones close to laying? I loose track of time.
