Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

HFR- 2 of 3 pekins candled well on day 4. We will give the other a chance. its too early for us to see brown eggs but duck eggs are fun to candle. 16 from 24duck eggs via different supplier are goos so far as well - same ratio

now you gone & done it!

next your house will be filled with all sorts of poultry books

not just chicken but turkey, duck, & many more

your shed will become another coop (been there done that)

your garage will never have a car in it again

they will not fit with all the brooders in there

then you start to collect dog crates & cat carriers (these are good when you have a sick or weak bird)

you will always be on the lookout for fencing & posts (you can score lots of free goodies on trash day)

your back yard will never be the same

I am sitting in the airport lounge praying for some no-shows so I can get an upgrade. 14 hrs in economy will be hell.






I cheat OZ
once underway on the flight to Manila i get my 1st free meal & something to drink
once finished i head to the "little boys room"
i then strap in & take 2/3 melatonin
as i start wake i take a couple more
next thing i know we are only 1.5 hours from landing

Which one did you get? And I'm the same way.. I want to get a Brinsea and get to hatching, keep having to remind myself I'm about to pop

Birthday is in August... good time to get one and get to hatching.

Yay!! so glad...

here's hoping for a breeding pair for ya!!! of course Bernie will be hard pressed not to eat the giants when they grow out!! just remind him to breed more and soon you won't have to hatch them they will go broody and hatch them on their own...at least my female keeps hiding eggs from me..LOL
