I can't imagine setting 12 dozen eggs at once, so would go with the 4 dozen continuous weekly sets.

There is room for 24 dozen. 3 rows with 96 slots each. I usually do 1 row per week. BUT, my stupid Orps are always NONfertile eggs, so I have been having 1 1/2 rows open.

I can't wait to see how this turns out

WELL, what can I do? I mean, I have these Icelandic eggs sitting here, and really they are just sitting here aging. My frig is FULL of eggs (I am talking 20 dozen at least), so I do not need any more to eat. Silkie eggs sitting here, too....... hmmmm.....

No doubt I HAVE to set the 16 New Hampshire eggs I have, and the 24 Barred Rock eggs, too. BUT, I still have all those other open slots. It just looks so empty.


thinking I could try the dang Orps again. I have 43 of those. They have been non fertile for 6 months, so should I even try????

I have a pip! I'm pretty sure it's a WC Polish!

Dropped my iphone AGAIN and broke it AGAIN. I highly DO NOT reccomend the iphone 4 for anyone out there coordnationally challenged like myself. Not getting another one. Going back to the regular old non breakable iphone.

Good news- our school district is offering summer school this year! So I can hold off on having to murder DS for his lazines. UGH!

Hopefully there will be a fuzzy butt greeting me in the morning. I off to bed. Because I'm offically old now and have to go to bed early!

I want to make a joke, but since I personally know the frustration of setting nonfertile eggs over, and over, and over again....................
