Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

[RedBrush Farm]

Wow! I may have to drag out the Christmas bonus. Oh, wait. I need that for the coops for the eggs already coming. Is it time to go back to moonlighting as a waitress to pay for my chicken addiction? (Best paying job I've ever held, by the way. Just say, "Sugar,..." in a Southern accent to single guys in California and the bills come out like singles in a strip joint.

)

The only time I tried to waitress, I was fired for spilling coffee on everyone! They would pay me NOT to come by to refresh the cup

Put it under the mat in the box. I've shipped older birds before but next year will be my first time shipping day old chicks. Quite a scary thought.

do you think 20x8x6 is big enough? I don't want to spread them out too much as it is cold here and where I am shipping to.

I'm ambidextrous. I can pour with either hand.

Me too - it just doesn't always make it into the cup....

Glad you are good at it. If I take on extra work it is usually as a tutor at the college. Pay is good but some of them need to go back to high school and pay attention...

Hi Everyone,

My name is La Sonya and I just joined this backyard chicken on December 8th of 2012. I just came across this rare auctions as I was looking for the breese. I didn't know about your thread until after the auction as I was attempting to find someone who sold after I lost the bid. I recognized the username as reading threads when did a search for breese decided to ask if would be breeding. I have only done eBay so sorry I wasn't familiar with rules. I am not a stalker just a new farmer trying to obtain birds to raise that not everyone has on their farm. So I am sorry if offended because it wasn't my intention.

Don't worry, you didn't do anything wrong. Welcome to the thread and BYC.

Deb

x2! One time, I forgot to move some eggs to the hatcher out of my cabinet incubator and came home to chirping that I couldn't find a source for. Two chicks had hatched in there are were at the bottom of the incubator and had apparently fallen down there in the process. They grew into beautiful birds!

If you have the box, do a dry run. Put down a towel or paper towels in the box and put the chicks in. make sure they are too cramped and have some room to move. That's what I did with some chicks I shipped. Ended up using 2 boxes instead.
