I'm thinking about taking a break from BYC.

I originally came here for learning, sharing, & to help people in all chicken related subjects.

My main focus is Genetics, & breeding. Certain people seem to ridicule me in this subject, & it's putting a whole lot of stress on me, & making me feel real bad. I wish the emojis were working right now.


I hope you guys understand if I'm not here for awhile. My life is just full of alot of crud I can't seem to escape.

This site has had therapeutic effects on me for awhile, it's helped with alot with coping with my disabilities, & recently depression. Chickens is what keep me happy, & keeps me going. Sharing my birds with you all has been nice, but I think we should part ways for awhile.

we'll miss you! but i understand that if youre feeling feeling stressed, it would be better if you took a break
i'm sorry about all the things that have made you feel this way. it can be hard through the internet

When I end up leaving for awhile, please don't blow up the thread, too much please?

oh yeah good idea!

The thing is working now. Turns out I accidentally hit the BBcode button thing.

oh okay, thats good!

Got 21 eggs so far. One was a fairy egg with a yolk.

oh interesting!

Thinking about hatching 10-15 meat birds. Do you think this a good number, or should I hatch more?

hmm, do you think you can butcher all of them without taking too much time? if so i think it would be a good number

The Malay eggs are arriving between 10AM, & 2pm.

Sorry I keep bringing them up, just excited about them.

its all right! it is very exciting

Eggs are placed.

whoah...
Mystery how is the power doing? and how are the eggs?

I think I figured out why my first turner motor stopped working. There was an oily substance coming out of its holes, so I think it's battery pack blew.

oh yikes
were you able to get the new turner part?

 

[KingD]

oh no!
i hope they are all right!

Yep they'll be fine
There's about 50something so quite a few
