Quote: REALLY! They made it into the states with EGGS?

I was shocked too. I was asked if I would hatch them and I said yes not really expecting them to make it.

Maybe it worked because one of the couple is a Spanish Native?

The brought back:

18 Marraduna Basque
12 Pita Pinta
12 Partridge Penedesenca

Basque has 12 developing
Pita Pinta has 7
the Pennes are so dark I can't really tell

I quit hatching too! Well for myself. Then someone came back from Spain with carry on eggs....

Ron

hm... now the gears are turning... anyone going to mexico in the near future? 8) maybe i can get my ocellated turkey eggs THAT way. LOL

ya'll are going to get me in trouble here. LOL

 

[ki4got]

ok well another update... nobody offered me anything i wanted in exchange for the pheasant eggs. so guess that means they go in the incubator.

anyone give me any hints on incubation? i'm guessing the temp/humidity etc is all the same, but how long??

from my research, the roos will get along as long as there aren't any pheasant hens, so i might just put 1 or 2 in my egg pen for some AWESOME color. 8) no eggs but still nice to look at. or maybe a pair... who knows. LOL we'll see what hatches.

and yeah, Donna, i quit hatching too. lol that's why i'm putting 18 pheasant in, and put 20 guineas in yesterday.

it's not smuggling. it's "asset relocation"

 

[Arielle]

Yes, truley assett allocation for us addicts. MIL would see it as smuggling as she would be on missionary work.
