Hi justme! I sure missed chatting with you all. Had to actually talk to DH in the evenings while he was trying to watch TV-think he'll be glad I have a computer again so he can channel surf in peace.

That's so sweet of you to offer a little gray.

The fellow I bought the Snowies from has 2 he is willing to sell me, but not sure I want to spend $300 on 2 hens...

lol I have been looking at eggs again. The lady i was telling you about east who wanted to do a trade with quail and call eggs, i'm going to see her this weekend while my sister is in town! Road Trip to Dallas area! I'm trading her quail eggs for some call ducks and some really pretty indian runner eggs! she is getting ride of her runners and she will have a few eggs from them till the leave this weekend also. Anyone have any experiences with runners? I know they lay very well!

I don't know a thing about runners other than that they are adorable.

Guess I better quit playing on the internet and get busy. Probably talk to you all this evening or tomorrow. Since it stays light so late, we're outside til pretty late working.
Glad to be back in the 21st century!

East is back!!!
Sorry about your arm

Since you missed it east I threw out 16 out of 18 of the Aussie Spotted eggs cause of the air cells were completely broken

And threw out 5 Ancona duck eggs cause they were infertile so total was 21 eggs thrown out

But on the good side I'm getting Maran Chicken Eggs!!

I am typing from my phone. It is a PITA lol. I'm down to 4 butter eggs. I lost one of my SA hens and the one that is left stopped laying. I have 7 in the bator that are developing beautifully. The goose eggs that I was hatching for a friend, I candled them as they go into lockdown friday and all 5 are developed. I candled my eggs from Justme but it is too early to tell yet. I miss everyone dearly. Glad you got a new puter East. I can't wait for my cord to get here. This stinks
