"gambling" with fate to defend my eggs' life (he/she make it!!!!)

I am looking forward to a picture of your new chick. Congratulations on the new baby. I do agree that a broody hen is the best incubator. I don't think that you will have any problems raising the chicks together. When chicks are this young they haven't established any kind of pecking order yet. So I think that you can add chicks together for several weeks and not have any problems. My family and I are wishing you and your family the best. Christina
 
@ justbugged : thank you for the information, i'll expect tomorrow or later to get the baby from the mom, i'm still thinking he's still too weak to be grabbed from his mom.

It's cute! Congratualtions again! Yes keep the chicken killing dog away! Cute dog but a bad apettite for chicken

I hope you get the other chick tomorrow!
 
Congratulations Mulia on the new chicks. I know you have wanted them for a long time and my heart rejoices to see that you finally have them. I also have the problem of others not wanting to talk chickens all the time. Neither my friends nor family understand why I love them. We have both found a place that we fit here on the BYC board.

May the New Year bring peace and happiness to you and yours.
Your Friend.
Barbara
 
Thank you for the picture. The chick is adorable. I really hope you get a few more chicks to hatch. Christina
 
Hello, Mulia. I am sorry to hear you were sick. Uticaria is not an easy thing to live with. It made me crazy when I had it -- I had the bumps from my feet to my waist! I hope being stuck at home did not cause difficulties with your college studies.

What a very nice car sales website you made! I really like the way you have vehicles scrolling from right to left in the box to the right of the movie and the way they stop scrolling when you mouseover them. The site's pages are well-organized, and each page is also well-organized. Navigating around the site is easy and the pages aren't cluttered with images that confuse and tire the eye. The graphic bar at the top is very pretty. I like how you have some of the swirls extending beyond the vertical egde of the green rectangle. I like the way the lower edge of the rectangle disappears behind the translucent bar and the rectangle's gradient is a nice touch.
I really like the Toyota Camry you're "selling." I love Camrys. How many Buff Orpingtons would you trade for one?

BargainCity is also very well-done. These are the things I like: the revolving planet icon in the browser's address bar, the logo, the option to change font size, the clock, news feed which shows a summary of the news on mouseover, currency converter, shoutbox and the list of current visitors. I also like the way the pages are laid out because they aren't confusing to the eye, and the site's organization. I hope you and Marini get good marks for these assignments.

Congratulations on your villiage chicken babies! I know you wanted village chickens very much. I had an extremely busy December but I was wondering how your eggs were doing. I was hoping you had been away from BYC because of college and not because your dog caused bad problems again for your chickens.

Please post again soon to let us know how your village babies are doing. I hope you don't get sick again.
 
@ Cindiloohoo : sadly i did not see any further sign, i missed that one
sad.png
so the chicks from 2 broody are only 3 chicks, but well, this is their first time hatching, beside, many problem they face start from hard rain pouring my coop till my dog invading the coop and attack them.

thank you so much

@ new2chooks : thanks kelly, unfortunately no, the dog keep try and try to go to my backyard area but my baricade seem to be good enough to hold him back for now.

@ bloomnbeauty : thank you barbara, well, i do love chicks, especially this time i got village breed chicks, how proud i am
cool.png
got chicks from eggs produced by my own hen and hatched by my hens.
big_smile.png



@ justbugged : well, unfortunately i don't, the other eggs (how to say this word???) being tread by the hen and *ruin*. got so many liquid flooded the nest box and totally 3 chicks from 2 hens. never mind, glad to have them. thank you christina.
smile.png


@ lngrid : but it did, i got a lot of tasks when i back to college.
roll.png
1 word to describe it.... horrible. yes, they did spread so fast, almost all my body being covered by that red dot and they started *joining* but after i put medicine, in the morning whole of that were vanished, and the only left are red dot on hands and legs. but now all has been cured.

wew, is that true independent review or not?
ep.gif
if yes then the score should be high
cool.png
whenever i browse the web, i always found much sites have better (too much better) design then mine. i just wondering why can't i build 1 like that?
hu.gif
by the way, glad to hear i have people reviewing my sites.
big_smile.png


thank you so much, of coure i've been waiting for them for so long, they're naughty little chicks, i'm a little disappointed for them, because they're not so friendly like my arabic breed chicken, i guess this is because of they're being hatched by hen so they imprint only with the hen. my arabic breed chicken are really friendly with me, never run away from me. that's true, i've started getting better handling the dog. many tasks await me when i back to college.

i'll post newest pics of the whole flock soon ( i hope i can do it tomorrow)
big_smile.png


quite late, but well... Happy New Year 2010

Can you strap the eggs to your body, somewhere you won't crush them by mistake like against your chest? You'd want to use a light fabric that will let air through so the eggs can breathe.

Women have successfully incubated eggs for 3 wks in their bras; I see no reason why a man couldn't do the same as long as your daily activities and life allow you to keep the egg on you 24/7 and not break it.

Actually I suppose you could leave it in the incubator when the electricity is on, and just transfer it to a wrap holding it against your body when the power is off.

Very best of luck,

Pat
I’ve wondered about what the women do with the eggs when to go to sleep?
