Really? I randomly log on and find out I was supposed to set eggs today?

I was gonna feed those D'uccle eggs back to the critters tomorrow, guess I better go stick 'em in the bator!

I can't fit many though...I already got 30 Guinea eggs in there, 40 more on the counter to go in tomorrow, and I'm hoping for 50 more each Tuesday after. Alright, how does 6 sound? That way if I run outta room I can pull out the mini Brinsea.

Put me down for 6 Mille Fluer D'Uccles



Now what is this noise about I can't enter the same rooster crowing pic? Do you know how long I followed him around the yard trying to take that picture? Sheesh!

Ok, it wasn't so bad. lol I'll try to get a pic of one of the fluffy boys this time.

Glad to see so many people involved, but this is gonna be a hard thread to keep up with!

I have a question...I have a broody and she has been setting on some eggs for about 10 days. Can she be a part of it? She is a little Jap bantam and this is her first time EVER being broody. She is almost 4 years old.

I'm fine with that. As long as you hatch by easter monday, its okay with me.

ETA: Off to scour my chicken pics!

I finally got to today's snail mail. OH NO! my power company is going to do a scheduled shut down for maintenance, on the 14th of April. for 4 hours in the very early am.

What should I do with my incubator full of eggs?

Put blankets over the bator and keep your fingers crossed. That really stinks!
You could try buying, renting or borrowing a generator for the night.

I set my 10 shamo eggs and 7 silkie eggs at noon today...I received the silkie eggs today and didn't let them sit long at all. That combined with my extremely porous shamo eggs, I'm thinking I might get the worst hatch rate!!

Funniest chick pic... its been on BYC before... the chick was SUPPOSED to be precariously perching on my sons head.. well, I guess as soon as I hit the button, he decided to BONZAI! off Ians head.... between the chick and the look on his face...

I could never get another picture like this if I tried!! (No chicks were harmed in the taking of this pic

)
