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

[mlm Mike]

Quote: Nice, how many does you have bred?

Quote: Oh yes, sorry.

Does deer does ever jump the fence to run with your does?

(say that 3 times real fast)

I have never seen any on that side of the fence, I have seem them come up to the fence and eat off the apple trees that are in the does small pasture.
My main reason for quitting goats was the deer kept running through them faster than I could rebuild them. They were juiced & plenty low enough for a deer to jump easily; didn't matter.
Running through the fence rather than jumping it, is rather odd.
I used high tensile aluminum wire rather than steel. Not as strong, but I'd rather round up a stray animal than put down one that got tangled & couldn't free itself before something broke, like a leg.
That makes good sense.

Phage, I am surprised you dont use parafilm!



@BantyChooks this is what I used to use if I cracked any. Now I toss eggs

Does that stuff really work? How soon after the crack do you need to put it on? How big of a crack does it heal?


I had an accident with eggs today. Being lazy and colder than my Mother in laws ,,,,,,well you know... I ran out to let the layers out and I grabbed my Legbar eggs and layers eggs. (those not cracked by the cold) and put them in my rolled up shirt to bring into the house...


Well, here are my two eggs I cracked today. Would it fix either or both of them?







Thanks
