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

[BantyChooks]

Then you get complaints from the P.O. 'cause their route men can't reach the box. I made the county replace my mailbox twice after the plow truck driver knocked it over.

Just fer that day, I mean.

Actually.... Do you have curbs where you live?

I was thinking more like the delivery I see here, LOL... Mailboxes in an alcove by the roadside that the mail truck can just drive right up to.

What really helps is setting an I-beam in 3' of concrete, with the whole thing encased in re-barred brickwork.

That'd do it

That's very good. Glad some are making it.

I posted elsewhere, but I can't remember if I posted here (I I did, please forgive and ignore). The Aloha NNs arrived they morning - it was early enough that I was able to go pick them up when the post office opened and get them settled before heading in to work. All but one are doing well - one little one doesn't look like it'll make it (when you look at it, there seems to maybe be something wrong with the shape of its head). I'm not jumping the gun on euthanasia, though - I'll give it a chance. All the others are doing great.





Here's the weak one:


I got a call from Dunlap Hatchery - apparently they have had power issues and had a miserable hatch of NNs (something like only 18 from 300+ eggs set). So my S&G NNs will NOT be arriving on Saturday - we're going to try again with next week's hatch.
