@bubbles
My @ linking won't work. I'm not hatching right now. No active roosters and the two hens I got from elsewhere have been away from their rooster long enough that they aren't fertile anymore. They still aren't laying.
My incubator is a homemade aquarium incubator. It will be tested in February-ish when my older ladies get friendly with my new roos.

Great, thanks!

this is just one of the things I can do as far as threads..... this is preferences in a thread... snipped

as you can see I dont use it

and havent a clue how it differs from anyone elses? I have had this for some time.
I use the invisible for the told reason, and the page lengths for updates and when I run HALs and such.

Sally, as for extra lighting: My new hens will not lay. They were used to artificial lighting from 3 am to daybreak. I don't do that. Now that we have shorter days I turn the lights on in the barn (because it's dark/shaded) when I get out there- usually after daybreak anyway. I leave the lights on until I go to bed- usually after 9. My pullets are laying daily, but the hens don't seem to like this schedule. Walnut said the same thing I've heard before. About 15 hours of light helps laying.
That being said, I really don't know what is better. I don't want to mess with the natural cycle. But I'm not trying to profit from the eggs either.

Here are the best shots I could get of the chicks. Half of them refused to come out from under the "mama heating pad". Eggbert is a bit behind developmentally, I think I may need to tape his toes, because the middle toe on his right foot curls a bit, but then the outer toe on the same foot kinda curls the opposite way... It's bizarre. S/he also had a sticky head I had to dampen a wash cloth and wipe. he couldn't close his eyes all the way poor thing. S/he I'm not sure will make it. But we'll try!



They are so cute.

I also did an eggtopsy on the 10th one. A lot of fluid in that egg. The chick was perfect, head under wing, had internal pip, but nostrils didn't make it into air cell so I think he drown

Was a perfect all black chick

awwwww well look at what ya did get!!!! and all snug like a bug in a rug!!!!!!

110 posts while I slept.

sleep is overrated!

Congrats on all the new fluffy butts!!!!

I woke up this morning...day 19 to 3 pips!!!! 1 looks like it started zipping but waiting to see if more happens. 1 Sally project egg and 2 personal eggs. Nothing on Sally's CLB eggs yet.

I always did 14 hours over winter on the timer, but wasnt going to it this year, but now so many people are wanting our brahma and CCL not sure if it was the right choice.....
