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

Cute little things.

Good luck!

lol, Good morning!

Good luck! 

Thanks.

Actually, when it gets hot enough over your body temperature, you transition from shorts back to (light weight) shirt and pants and a hat. There's a reason folks are completely covered up in the desert.


Ummmmmm..... No thank you. 

I have had so many of those experiences that I do 360 containment with HW cloth now. The oldest group still rushes to perch on the door the second I open it, though...


Awwwwwwww.....  I can't wait until I can have goats. (I probably need to stop hatching so many chickens if I ever hope to...)
That sounds cool - post pics when you get the chance! 

Transferred the 1 week olds to the larger brooder this morning. They were being rambunctious enough that it was REALLY time. After a brief period of, "OMG, we're all gonna die" they really started to enjoy it - and the older chicks are having fun looking at them next door. So now the new babies are in a better brooder with more room. I'll have them join the older ones next weekend - then NO MORE CHICKS IN THE HOUSE! (YAY!!!!!!!)

It's rainy and foggy this morning - sorta gives you that "do nothing" mood. But I need to do some gardening and other yard work - maybe some additional paddock planning...

(After some brunch - I just pulled the last of the frozen quiche out of the freezer - time to make more!)

No, Sorry for you, her hatch was way better for mankind than your potential hatch is.

So far it shows 100% of the members of BYC will not be watching the Super Bowl.

Well, I'M certainly not watching it. I don't do professional sports. I don't actually even do college sports. I'll probably watch something on Netflix and knit...

Hey all you dairy goat owners @Sally Sunshine @mlm Mike [/@]@kajira @campingshaws @fire370 and the rest.
Yesterday I learned a super way to pasteurize milk with the push of a button. She uses the Instant pot IP-DUO60 7-in-1. It needs to be the 7 because it has a yogurt button. You fill it press the button and it beeps when it is done. No watching and stirring a pot

I ordered one.

That's a fantastic idea! (I can't wait to get goats...) On the cheese-making site I haunt, they sell a small pasteurizer, and I've seen others in catalogs, and they are all so pricey. I wonder how the yogurt making function works (for yogurt) - I just do the stovetop and then a food grade bucket in a styrofoam cooler (or I use mason jars in my dehydrator with the racks removed if I'm making a lot).

Hmm. Any particular reason you pasteurize? We never have done it.

Tuberculosis? Brucellosis?

it gets it to the right temperature. I have a separate yogurt maker.

Knitting is fun.

I went to hockey game once, when visiting a friend in Connecticut. It was very confusing to me, as I very quickly realized I must have been taken to a group boxing match on ice...

Tuberculosis? Brucellosis?

Only reason I see is making cheese or something. As far as for drinking milk, not needed as far as I'm concerned. Problem with today is too much jacking with the food. But I have my feelings on this and they probably differ.
