Thank you!bump to your resume is a good way to look at it.
2 ways from a phone. On mobile, the 3rd icon looks like a mountain with a moon in the corner. Hit it and follow the prompts. I have to scroll down after hitting it, it looks like the screen goes black, but it's actually up there! Lol
Or on the bottom of any page, you can switch to desktop mode, and it looks just like desktop. Just really tiny and a bit hard to move around, but it works.
I've bookmarked it and I plan to use it. Thanks!Thought I'd share this page here also, since we've talked about sicknesses. It's kinda like WebMD for poultry. Symptom checker, there's a page for chicks or ducks. Also at the bottom is a link for a predator identifier. And some other farm animal links too.
Disclaimer - I have no idea how accurate this thing is, I just think it's pretty neat.

"That's a crazy hard thick shell! What is an ISA?
Do you know of any other breeds with that kind of shell? OEs?
Just trying to learn and I Am learning so much here."
ISA is an ISA Brown( a hybrid developed by Ideal) though mine were who knows hatchery version of ISA's that I bought at the feed store last year in desperation...I absolutely did not want roosters and as chicks, ISA pullets are reddish brown and white and cockerels are yellow. I bought four knowing I had guaranteed myself four future little egg laying machines and they are. Also friendly inquisitive little hens but their egg shells are INCREDIBLY hard. I didn't think about that when I gathered their eggs along with the others to incubate. It was midway through when I was researching possible colors I could get that I read ISAS don't get bred a lot because of that hard shell being a problem for the chicks. And that proved to be true.
So this weekends hatch is over. Only had 6 eggs because that was all the space I had open after removing clears on day 7 from last weekend's set. 4 tiny bantams of 6 hatched. 1-silver duckwing OEGB, 1-self blue OEGB, 1-black ohiki, and 1-silkie/self-blue mix. Now they join the lone SDW that hatched last weekend with all those monster lavender Orpingtons! Lol
Set 22 more lavender Orpingtons last night, so they will be due April 8 weekend.
23 call ducks still going strong to lockdown this week, due Friday! 5 more days!!
