Banti - I think I'm gonna get Silver Appleyards from Holderreads. Next year. Still figuring out if geese would work. At least that's the plan this particular hour. Could change again in the next 15 minutes...

My eggs from a MM NN rooster crossed with non NN hen that was CCL rooster and Trader Joe's hens mix. So their eggs could vary from brown to olive I guess. Should be a good layer if the CCL doesn't come into play here, and provided a couple are hens.

Time to spend more time on the Duck Houses thread... 

If my duck saw that thread, she'd demand swankier housing immediately.

Of the four greens set two are out the third is is almost out and the fourth has pipped. This bunch of eggs is the ones that I chose the cooling option on for the whole 18 days instead of from day 7 to 18. So we'll see how the rest goes. They were actually set Tuesday night so the five out are early

Really - that's so interesting. I didn't use the cooling option in these hatches. (I should have thought to try it on some of the Puppy eggs.) I may try it next time...
