Thank you everyone!  

The ones that survived were 2 weeks old, the ones that died were 1 week old.  Born 4/16 - 4/18.   No lights in the coop, just their heat plate.  I don't think I had it low enough for the little babies.  They had a smaller heat plate in the inside brooder.  I do have a heat lamp I was going to run inside the whole coop - I had cleaned and moved the heat plate away from the Easter hatch.  They were not using it anymore,so I thought the warmer room would help.  But the only power in the coop so far is from a REALLY long power cord, with a 3 way plug on the end.  That is being used for the 3 heat plates.  I thought they would be warm enough with just each other (33 of them) and the heat plate, but sadly I was wrong.     

They need to have 30C-35C I keep them until they are 6 weeks old

I think the count is 0-8 so far against balut consumption.
Sounds like a lopsided baseball game. Cards vs. Braves.
We need more Asians in this thread.

I thought the same thing about snails and oysters, or locusts for that matter.

I like oysters, would like to try snails, are locusts like grasshoppers, if so i have had one of those freezedried and covered in chocolate

I am with you on oysters, I have had cricket before and it was ok.. Would be a little uneasy with snails. What about worms??

Locusts are like very obese 'hoppers

snails are also called escargot, french dish, good with garlic butter

The "Naked & Afraid" folks eats worms, 'hoppers, snails, etc. for much needed protein. I'm afraid I'd have to be near starvation first.

But you need to feed them with it for several days to clean their intestine!
