INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

I'm fine. How's you?

Not too shabby for a sexy seasoned citizen. You did a really nice job on the new coop

 

[Ur-ur-ur-urrr]

I'm at work, but I'm so antsy about my eggs in lockdown - completely fidgety, tapping foot, want to be at home to watch over them! I'm worried about the eggs with the small-looking air cells (though I realize I can't do anything at this point). 

I have a bunch of meetings, and later a dental appointment, but I really want to be at home to stare at the 'bator. Not do anything, just stare at it. 

I'm losing my mind - someone talk me off the ledge, folks!!!!

You should have called in sick today.... 3 day bug. If that doesn't work, call in dead. They can't argue death. Just saying...

@Jessimom did you only get two?
@LocalYokelhow is your quail healing?
Good morning everyone

Hi Daxigait!! Just one sadly....thanks for asking!

Morning all! I had just 1 Salmon Favorelle hatch. Gotro17 had such a great hatch, I'm trading her a bunch of silkie eggs for one of her babies to be a buddy to mine!!! I've upped my Temps by 1/2 a degree to see if that helps. I do have 6 of my own silkies set to hatch on the 12th. That will be my test. The bator is full of others, set to hatch the 27th or so.

Cecal poop vs regular poop


These are overnight poops from a 7 year old rooster that appears to be quite healthy. On the left is a normal cecal poop, on the right are pretty normal regular poops, though one pile has a little spec of red.


This is the same poop moved to a paper towel. regular poop on top, cecal on bottom.


Same poop again. Notice the creamy texture of the cecal poop compared to the regular poop. Interestingly, I think maybe I can see a cecal worm in this picture. Will go back and see if I can verify.

That's been my problem lately. Too many projects and not enough hours in the day...

No problem...just prioritize 'em & decide which one to procrastinate about first.

Hmm... I thought you were an angry old white man. Thanks for the enlightnment!!!

Thanks. It's almost done. Got the 3 doors on the coop, and then realized that there's only one entrance into the run... which will make accessing the separated coops/runs a little tricky. Oh well, I'll figure out a workaround.

Sometimes I agree, but we both know your not talking about fruits & nuts! I love the weather here, I do hvac work so it helps.

I bet! "specially when you have to crawl around in attics

Procrastination is what got me in such a bind...

Although, I can't blame it on procrastination... I just didn't feel like doing a lot of stuff!

You should be expert at it then. Take a break...go fishing...the work ain't going nowhere...it's always worked for me.
