Never heard of sea glass....'splain me, por favor

broken bottle in the ocean gets thrashed around and come out smooth and cloudy/frosted

Yep, that stuff. It's not always as pretty in real life. I picked up a piece of dr pepper bottle on my last trip, I'll take a pic later.


I AM NOT A BUILDER OF ANY SORT but I toyed with the idea of making a big rock tumbler out of a washing machine drum or something similar, and trying to make my own sea glass.

I know nothing of sea glass other than what Liz just told me, but I doubt it could be done in several eons, let alone a single lifetime

That's with the soothing waves of the ocean. I would gyrate the heck out of it.

Here's the bit of dr pepper bottle I picked up on our last beach trip.

Quote: I will assume you should have a basic three sections, one that you dont turn for about two three days because they are rolling or VERY loose. and then you have a section with just a tad wiggly, that you dont turn for about 24-48 hours and check them for stability, and then the last set is the good air cell eggs which NEED turned right from the start. hatch all upright.

Here's a sample of most of the eggs being candled. I got them all upright in the egg cartons, and will turn them in the egg cartons.

Wow, that's a lot. Good luck!

Our hen,Brownie has 7 chicks!! Another is hatching now and the 9th I'm not sure is alive. How long should I give this egg before I .......sadly rid of it? Will share pics later. Have errands to run. Waaah boring!!!

Congrats on the precious babies!!!!!

Y'all crack me up on here....I'm definitely in the other category as well.

God bless y'all!

I didn't know if there was a limit to the number of new things you were allowed to learn in one day.

Thanks Whites! I'm back now.

well, I got 8 silkie eggs previously, 2 were infertile, 6 fertile, only 2 made it to day 14, and i'm due for lock down this weekend.

So, I figure if I wanted 8-10 for a new flock, 2 dozen + gave me the bast chance of success to get the amount I wanted, theoretically. I already have a buyer for any spare chicks. LOL
