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

[kwhites634]

thanks Liz, he got lucky, I hate motorycycles, I almost lost dad, Talyn and now Dustyn. I hate them on the road. Not worthy of anyone's life.

They're a great mode of transportation, but they definitely equate to super-defensive driving & awareness of what's going on around you.

Okay, hunters! I have a funny little story to tell you!
Duckling has two books with Disney's Thumper. I asked his name, and she kept calling him "Supper!" So I asked what kind of animal he is. "Supper!"

GOOD SATURDAY MORNING, COFFEE CLUBBERS! (PLEASE DON'T CLUB THE COFFEE. WE HAVE SOME BABY SEALS OUT BACK FOR THAT!) AND GOOD MORNING TO ANOTHER NEW MEMBER, @dan26552

MC!!! Good morning!!!

I needed that coffee... Caught up on all the lost sleep I've had lately - feel a lot better, but groggy and achy. (Roosters got going at 5am, so I sort of napped my way on and off through the morning time)

whats the plans for this weekend?

Lotsa chicken chores, giving the Speckled Sussex to a friend tomorrow morning and giving their rooster Tank some new German New Hampshire girlfriends. Still trying to get those apple trees planted, and some gardening to do. Just chores, chores, chores...

Same as every weekend.... So pretty boring. 'Cept I might throw in dusting some chickens for lice in my routine for a bit of change, since some of the girls keep getting it..... You?

What do you use? I haven't had an issue before, so I never pay attention, but it occurs to me I should probably get some stuff to have on hand...

Quote: Me, too. Oh... Um.... I mean.... APPLE TREES! I'm digging holes for APPLE TREES!!!!

Quote:
Oooooh - I have bacon. I think once I'm done with my chores, I'll cook some bacon! Maybe make some quiche lorraine...

Awwwwwwwwww....

Thanks Banty. I have been around but not here too much. Sally knows of what's gone on the past few months and can enlighten everybody if she would like. Well, I suppose I can too.

About the time I kinda went off grid this summer, my wife and I were in a pretty horrific accident caused by a drunk driver. The investigators have deemed it a picture perfect double fatality and said we both defied all odds walking away. My wife and I had fished a tournament about 4 hours away and were on our way home when he ran a stop sign taking us out. Totaled one of my 2015 Cummins and our 2011 24' Blue Boat. But we are alive. I had another surgery on the 20th of Oct and am doing well. My wife has quite a bit of nerve damage and such. It will be a long heal. But the farm is doing great and operating as normal. All of my kids have moved home and chose to go to college locally so they can help out more. We are blessed to still be here.

fire, it's great to hear from you, and I'm so glad you and your wife made it out of such a horrible accident. Praying for your healing.

I love this photo. Brothers...

OK, I need to get off my tuckus and start getting those chores done. See you guys later!

Permectrin... It works well, the lice just come back 'cause of how hard my coop is to clean.

Please help my eggs are not 2 days late and I dont know what to do I'm really frustrated this us my first hatch and I I'm scared there dead please any advice helps

chicken eggs? what ioncubator? forved air or still, what temp and humidity?

Do ducks need less heat than chicks? Or the same? What temp would be best for two-week old babies? The cold part of brooder is 60*. Our temps dropped and I'm having trouble keeping them warm. :/

temp should be 75-80*

whats the plans for this weekend?

work, then get winterization done

Digging holes to hide bodies.

put them through the chipper then pigs, much easier and less work i am too lazy to dig holes

Good morning [@=/u/162672/Sally-Sunshine]@Sally Sunshine[/@] and everyone else! -Kathy
