Anyone else gonna take a shot?

@BantyChooks , might want to be more specific on the duck egg incubation time, as in list a breed.

Aw, c'mon Kat, show us how much you know...

Just don't ask me to do it.

I'm assuming they're asking for large fowl.

Good point, though.

Just checked... Answer says 28 days, so LF, I guess.

First thing I though of was do they mean calls, 28 day quackers, or 35 day Muscovy.

Me three, but I don't often find much I can answer...

Have fun

You Have a good day too!

Yeah that's my only problem lol about all I can do is tag someone else lol

Just acknowledging someone can make them feel better! Tagging people that can help is also a big help.

I initially started doing it and would tag someone who I knew could help (usually duck stuff I don't know). Or I'll link them to a thread on a given topic. But sometimes I'm surprised that I actually DO know something, at least enough to help, and agree with MC that getting an answer helps - also keeps their thread from getting lost if more help is needed.

Man I got a massive head ache today. Better stop looking at this screen. Got lots to do too. Have a good day everybody.

Aw, man, so sorry to hear - I get bad headaches, hate them.

WOW!!!! Duckling is so big and beautiful!!! The turkey hen's nice looking as well. Give them both a hug for me, will ya'?

It's usually my favorite holiday. Not really into it This year. Its just not the same without the kiddos. Oh well. Maybe I'll get drunk and pass out.

Atta girl...

Well, today went WAAAAAAAY better than I thought it would with the evaluations (I prepped and prepped and prepped for a couple difficult conversations, and it paid off, as it went well.) So, now that that's done, I can totally not think about work for a week. I spent the afternoon scraping the scale out of the waterers (for some of them, it's become a nidus for algae). Good times, good times. Wild and crazy, that's me.

I came back to BYC and found 52 freaking alerts!!!! Good grief! I still haven't figured out what half of them are...
