Well shoot. I missed you again! Was off making dinner. I missed Debbi on FB earlier too. Grr.
I MISS DEBBI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ok got that off my chest.
Anyway, hows it going? You and Don got your 'bators going yet? Don should have his going...wasn't he getting eggs a week or so ago?
Looks like a couple of the girls are going to give me a few eggs......so hopefully pretty soon I can get them into the bator, but still must wait for them to clear out as I don't want to take any chances because of the Birchen male.
Eggs that are incubating right now....well......the Splash eggs from Raven are developing good, but the air cells are all over the place, we will see. I believe they were handled pretty rough in shipping. Keeping my fingers crossed.
It looks like the eggs I set from my girls, all but one have quit. Tis okay with me as I only set them on a whim and I was worried about that Birchen male in the first place, so...................
Daisy Doo my goose has started laying and you know what that means don't you?
Goslings!!!!!! I love Goslings!!!!
I sold the Birchen pullet with the sprig as a layer. She went to a wonderful man who just wanted a pretty bird. Culled the other cockerel finally too. Now have the 2 pullets left and the male. Neither one of the 2 remaining pullets are showing any signs of anything on their combs, but still waiting for one of them to start laying and for the other one who started laying a couple weeks ago to start back up again. She gave me 2 eggs and then nothing. I'm going to test mate them to the male (sibling) to see what happens with the sprig. Did I tell you I was wrong when I thought the male had a sprig as well? He does not, matter of fact he actually has a pretty nice comb so that is a good sign. Just hope that sprigs don't pop up in the single test matings.
