Where Linda? I'm in the foothills!

One property is in River Pines, Amador County, and the other is in Outingdale, El Dorado County. Near Fairplay and Somerset. Up off County Rd E16 and State Route 49.
 
Well, Miracle (the little chick who pipped early, in the wrong end and right through a big vein is moving around and acting great!! The pip was early and when I saw the blood, I was afraid that it was all over for that one but about 5 hours later, she was out.. Looks like a pullet and is cute as a bugs ear.. If she has any friends dry in the morning, I'll pull them out and get a picture..

Good night everyone and may you all wake up to new chickies!!

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

SIX MONTHS ! ! ! ! I have been setting those eggs for 6 months! Not one single fertile egg!

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????

Maybe try setting some of those Coronation Sussex?
