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

[mlm Mike]

2 quarts of rubbing alcohol, tiny palm trees and either a surf board or a parrot, food coloring, a tiny boat or or ship wheel, paint thinner and lots of paper towells has been added to my grocery list.
I am adding fire hose to the list.. what, me worry?

The first person who responds in 60 seconds gets to see a 1 minute old Hamp gilt.

Good fall morning to you all. We are definitely feeling it this morning with 89 degrees on Monday and 42 this morning. Of course, the giant tin can I work in doesn't help.

Morning Dax!

Good luck with the piggies. What's wrong with the buck? I hope he is ok!



Are the with the hen?

Yes, they are with the broody. I don't have any desire to do chicks this time of year in a brooder. Besides, I hate trying to integrate chicks.

Good morning everyone!

Another rainy day here.

Then they will probably get some extra protein as momma teaches them to search out good eats.

Good morning everyone!

Another rainy day here.

We had storms come in with the cold front raining all night Monday and half of yesterday. The temperature dropped to 50 for yesterday and forty two overnight with it grey and drizzling here this morning. It is supposed to get up to the mid sixties though and then back to the eighties. I hope it is in the middle for the buck show.

Thanks! Got three more sheets of T1-11 up yesterday. It's really looking like a coop.

A beautiful view for this morning.
I bet this high mountain lake (10,000') that had snow in August as we crested the pass is cold now . You would have loved it. I hope to share pictures of the waterfall just outside of this shot where we had lunch soon. I need to get everything off my camera.

The bucks got in with the girls, so the vet was out Monday to give all the girls Lutalyse. Now breeding will begin with the next cycle.
