every 3 months people nominate who they want to.
you deserve your medal. when you were missing for some time (a year or 2 ago) we were a bit lost. you help people save years of breeding.
How do you keep track with an incubator full? If you come back and 6 new chicks are out of their eggs- how do you know who is who- even if the egg is marked?Just a suggestion for folks that are newer to raising Poultry. This works for all Poultry. When we first get started with Poultry we should Single Mate all breeder fowl and mark all eggs and toe punch all chicks and band all as they develop. The good thing about Single Mating is if all check ok with no major faults we can then pen mate the Pullet with a male that has been proven and get more quality chicks. Try not to bring in to your farm anything not proven . When you get started with this it will take a little more time but will be worth it later.
All eggs are marked before going in the incubator room. I have wire baskets made for the Trays in different incubators.How do you keep track with an incubator full? If you come back and 6 new chicks are out of their eggs- how do you know who is who- even if the egg is marked?
