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

Great day in football!!! In reality the Packers stomped the Seahawks, and in fantasy football Leveon Bell scored forty seven points.
 
Morning all.

We lost our sweet dog, Bunny last night just a little after 11PM. Towards the end she was unconscious. I don't think she suffered too much. I'm convinced that she had a massive heart attack. She was a good, smart girl who loved her dog cookies and would bark at you until she got what she wanted. When she was just a year old I taught her how to ask for treats by sitting in front of the container and giving a little bark. That was all it took. Soon we were holding
'conversations' with one another. My dad was living with me at the time and his dementia made him sleep a lot so she was my company. It didn't take her long to learn that the louder she asked the faster she got what she wanted.

So many memories are flooding me right now. I just told my husband that it just didn't seem right that God gave us such a wonderful companion animal and then gave them such a brief walk upon this earth.

I am one eight Cherokee Indian, the last generation that can claim legal tribal status, although my Great Grand Mother Alice never enrolled. The Native Americans have a legend about the dog. When the Great Spirit made the heavens and earth and all things that lived upon it, he made man last and told him from that day forward man would forever be separated from the animals. To prove that, a deep chasm opened in the ground between man and all the creatures of the earth. At the last moment before the chasm grew to deep and wide, dog jumped over it and set down beside man.

Rest in peace, Bunny.

I almost felt a little sorry for Seattle; they're a better team, 'specially Russel Wilson, than the final score showed. They had an off day against a hot Packers team firing on all 22 cylinders on their home field; tough combination to beat. I just hope Rodgers can heal up enough to play the next 3 games + however far they get in post-season, if they get some help.
 
I continue to be flummoxed by the number of people on BYC wanting to make their own chicken feed. Apparently to save money or create something more nutritious. Neither of those things are possible at home.

I bought 10 bags of feed at Farm&Home yesterday. All were made by Nutrena.
A 40 lb. bag of scratch was $10.49 and bagged in October.
A 50 lb. bag of 18% all flock pellets manufactured a week ago was 10.29.


18% cost me $19
16% lay pellets is $15
Both 50# bags
