@Thejperez where do you live? Raccoons and foxes where I live at least love to make a weird terrifying array of noises that sound like a pig crossed whith a bear crossed whith a cat :/

I live in Central Florida. A racoon is on the top of my list of what this chicken snatching (insert curse word here).

Ohhh yess Fluffy he looks so innocent to be all sexual lol.

Do you have wild pigs there? We do here but not near us.
What else sounds similar when its being chased?

I'm pretty sure we have quite the large wild pig population here. The trampling sounded softer than my 50 pound dog, so it definitely wasn't a grown one if if happened to be a pig.

Don't know what could have made that noise. I'd rather stay away from strange noises at night!

Insert Curse Word lol love it!

I couldn't actually say the word I was thinking of! This is a family show!

I can't wait to be able to collect 3 eggs in one day!!!
When I have more chickens should I use an apron or pimp out a basket?

Alright! I've seen movement in all but 1 of my 5 eggs during lockdown and theres 1 1/2 days to go! Moved 2 eggs to our larger still air bator for hatch room. Didn't move them all due to the bators temps not meeting up whith my hydrometer. Pretty sure it's cause the bators sensor is hung from lid so it's not directly over water basins and heat has risen to lid. Cause hydrometer next to eggs is a constant 98.8 f and 66% to incubators 100 and 60%. They do rise and fall simultaneously though so I think it's just due to positioning, either way didn't want to risk all in one so 2 buff eggs are in the still air, and 3 Banty cochins in the mini still

Aldo have i noted that USPS tracking generally sucks? Chicks supposedly shipped yesterday afternoon and having experience whith mailing birds is expect them Tommorrow by afternoon...and yet. Nothing past Usps has prepaired for package arrival! As in. To ship! It's had to have been shipped by now! So why no updates?! USPS people, when someone trusts you to transport their future babies to them you could try to ease their worries and UPDATE TRACKING past the preparing for shipment! Oh god i do not want a delivery of all dead chicks! Id never forgive myself, I swear to god guys it's stressing me out! At least I know MY POST OFFICE will call the moment they come through the door and baby chicken waiting game continues guys!

They are your future babies and here they are not caring at all.

When I get deliveries they don't even bother coming up to the house they just take it to the post office. Its sooo annoying. I was thinking of ordering my future babies online so ill take your experience and learn from that.
