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

I hate taking bucklings that have stayed around for a while to the sale barn. It makes me feel bad. It is much easier when they are first weaned and you're not attached.

@Wickedchicken6 he is just getting a temporary reprieve. He was born late and so he has not had any time to be marketed really. I also don't have anything out of his damn yet that I've been able to keep so I may keep him as insurance at least till she kids this spring.

I can never get videos to work on here. I would love to see the creepy crawlers!

Do you know that you have to upload a video to Youtube first.
Then post a link to that video here on BYC.
You can't upload the video straight to BYC yet.
