Here is a picture of my pathetic Easter hopefuls. I have the first 6 eggs laid by my crested cream legbars and one cracked Isbar egg with a huge gob of wax covering a big dent. Wish us luck!

Well, I threw out my first egg today. I noticed it was "weeping" so I took it out and candled it. It look scrambled on the inside. Now I know what a detached aircell looks like. After cracking it into a paper plate, my suspicions were confirmed. Now I am down to 49. I am not sure what this means for the rest of the eggs in that batch, but I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Kittens anyone? Last Spring someone dumped some kittens at our farm and we didn't have a chance to get the one we kept spayed (we will now)

NOPE! Don't miss it a bit!

I knew you were going to say that,

you in your nice warm cozy place for now... just wait for the summer time..but then again, you probably love the heat. I love summer here.
Is your incubator staying put? Still?

Have to say....thanks for doing this..it's been fun, educational, interesting, and with extra learning experiences happening...so far!

I'm sorry... but what does this even mean?? My nails are mine, I buy them whenever I want them. Is this a nasty gram? What did I do? ALL I did was tell a story to people who would understand, because I didnt even TELL some of the people in my daily life cause they are clueless about chickens.. I sure am sorry that my dang pictures have been all over these forums all day and if yall want( I know its aggravating even to me I gotta hurry and scroll down to read)...I will take it off, if there is a way ...but I don't know how...
not really sure what to do with this...

I laughed so loud that the few little chicks behind me all noisily ran to the other end of the brooder.

Thank you, dsqard, for stepping up and filling this obvious need. We now only have to hit the "Search this thread" button up there above the first post on a page, type in the word "Cliff" and we can find a summary of recent posts. Actually, couldn't anyone that reads most of the threads type up a Cliffs Notes version? I don't know ... but it would be helpful on busy days.

Wait ... dsqard, you do realize that you forgot to give the Literary Criticism and Analysis of the recent posts.

My internet service went down. . .. .and I missed 300 posts! . THat's 30 pages!!!


Incubator temps started rising. Hope I did n't cook them. I feel like throwing them all out and starting again. We are having crazy weather: 60-70's during the day and drop to the low40's at night. Not normal for here. Messes with my LG.

Well, now that I think about it I do have another incubator!! I'll start collecting today.

Glad you're back up on the internet. I have more than once wanted to throw my styrobators out the window. After ruining at least 3 hatches that I can think of off the top of my head over the years, it goofed up its last hatch this spring. Yes, I am tempted to make a cooler out of my recently retired styrobator. (just a little joke)
