How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

[karenerwin]

13 eggs today and I bought 4 marans chicks at the feed store when I was picking up food. Will be bringing 9 meat chicks home from school on Friday. 9 out of 12 hatched successfully. 1 had pipped externally but did not finish zipping. They are in the science teacher's class ( I teach math). I went down to her room after school yesterday and that was when I saw that it had stopped and got shrink wrapped. It had already died. The other 2 eggs had not pipped externally. I don't know if they had internally or not, but 9 free meat chicks is better than a poke in the eye!

Welcome to the thread we get to brag about our eggs or how big they are and no one rolls their eyes at us

12 eggs yesterday and 12 the day before that and I think 13 the day before that one! I can't remember what day I posted last and don't want to go back through to find it.
Of the 4 marans chicks I bought 3 have died 1 each day. I'm not sure what the issue is. I did get 3 more and another turkey pullet and 2 light brahmas and I brought home the 9 meat chicks from school I did spread some chick food on the ground of the brooder in case they were not eating out of the food container and I made sure to dip every chicks beak in the water container. So, hopefully whatever was the problem was, it has been remedied. I did watch they chicks this morning and saw some of them drinking and eating and some were even eating out of the food container. I guess whatever happens happens.

That is the way marans where here also seemed not quite as strong ?
