Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Battle at the Top
I suppose this was inevitable. I may have spoken too soon.

Well I think we have learned who leads the Rascals. Little Glynda just attacked Aurora. there was a pause and I was able to get the camera running and grabbed the finale. Rest assured, Glynda started it. it seems that Aurora ended it.

Right after I stopped filming, Glynda looked at Hattie wrong and got stood on for her troubles.

Aurora is still squawking mad because she was challenged. She took that out on Hattie a few minutes ago. Aurora is walking around the yard squawking still.

This I gotta see - but like @Ribh I am getting an error message.

Vaccinated Fertile Eggs

So I went out searching for fertile eggs which had been vaccinated for Marek's disease. I have learned that the optimal timing for in ovo vaccination is at 18.5 days of embryo development. You need to use a specific machine to do the vaccination.

I will be researching the cost of said machine to see if it is even feasible for us to try. This could be quite the science experiment. I also have to see how difficult it is to use said machine.

More to come......

Thanks @Ribh for the push.

@Ribh @RoyalChick I have updated the video. I think it works now.

Well, you know what a terrible enabler I am... I really hope this enterprise is cost efficient.

Do let us know. I suspect it is only for the fully automated big hatcheries (who incidentally also use a much more specific vaccine than the ones used by the small time guys).
But if you do find it is doable please let us know!

We shall see.

I will be sharing what I learn with everyone so we can all learn.

Well the lovely Glynda needs to know her place - I mean who in their right minds would take on Aurora at the best of times and then there is the size difference!

 

[RoyalChick]

We shall see.

Can you not just buy vaccinated fertile eggs? If so, get them vaccinated for the other killers that have reliable vaccines which I think includes mycoplasma and a couple of others.

You have to laugh. She is so tiny compared to Aurora. That Glynda does have spunk for sure.
