4 Khaki Campbell from tdhenson. Light, dark & khaki... My broody hatched all 7 of the eggs sent. 1 died under the broody the first night 2 more disappeared...so 4 little quackers running the barnyard.

And since I only keep Muscovy, a wonderful friend of mine will take them home.

I have a SFH chick hatched from you and the other one is pipped!

I'll get pictures once they are all hatched and dried.
 
Sorry. I've been gone for a few days because of a crisis that turned out to be a misunderstanding on my end. In the end, I misinterpreted what the APHIS people were telling me and sold all my birds except for the Silkies and Pilgrim geese because some of my chickens got the respiratory version of fowl pox. They told me that it is really dangerous especially for chicks since it affects their lungs and can have near 100% mortality in chicks. They told me to vaccinate the ones not affected yet. I misinterpreted what they said to mean that if my chicks caught it, they would all die even with a vaccination and sold all my birds to a lady for only about $1 each. Apparently, she knew that fowl pox vaccination would save them from getting the respiratory version and grabbed them up within minutes of me posting them. Well, turns out, if I vaccinate the birds not showing symptoms, they will be 100% fine. So, long story short, my Silkies will be vaccinated this week, but everyone else is gone and the lady doesn't seem interested in selling any of the birds back.

But I did now... but Mom & Dad got a couple in the mail...I get to use one. whew

Got a question.... If I become NPIP certified, am I only able to accept eggs from people that are NPIP? The guy called today while I was gone. I am going to call him back tomorrow.

I have accepted eggs that weren't from NPIP flocks. I won't bring older birds in from non NPIP flocks but I don't have a problem bringing eggs in.

How do you sign up to get coupons from TSC?

I'm in the process of being certified NPIP too. Great question!

Maybe try to schedule eggs from non NPIP farms earlier?? I dunno. There does seem to be much less risk with hatching eggs vs live birds though, for sure.
