Awesome chicken inspired lip balm at the local lumberyard

That is the best chapstick!!!...it's the avacado oil I think.
Never seen that dispenser tho...hilarious!

Can't tell if you egg is fertile attimus, pic is not clear enough for these old eyes, should be clear thin ring(bullseye around) the dot.....
have you seen the fertile egg thread? Lots of good examples there.

Funny thing, I didn't even check last year when I put eggs under my broodys. I just assumed. Well now I know. Lol.

Attimus, I highly recommend incubating with friends. Especially if you are making a bator. Sally runs the thread. So much info. Good contests and HALs. Very educated and helpful people.

I'll have some questions there soon. Putting my list together for the incubator now. Duck pen first tho, got 3 more frames up between posts, another 4 to do tomorrow.

Haven't been there yet but, I'm certain they are fertile. I could see the little dot on both of them. And they look like the few I've seen pictures of. Wasn't a bad hatch rate last year for not looking. Lol.

Quote: The dot is always there, the blastodisc....the circle around it shows the blastodisc has been fertilized(in most cases).
