Now I'm confused.....!!???

Sounds like you're going to be busy

There are a lot of incubator builds on here too.. everything from coolers to fancier models

Yea. I been looking at them all day. Raining here today. Not much to do outside. I think I may try that cooler one for the hell of it. Why not. But it will cost me more than the one I just got. LOL. Because I don't have any thing around here.

I love the being busy part now!!

I go insane when it's raining outside. I still go out there in the rain. I'm not made of sugar for sure.

I won't melt.

First off, take out the duck eggs if you believe they are infertile. With duck eggs I found they were easier to candle than chicken eggs, especially brown chicken eggs. The BLOB is bigger & the veins are more obvious in duck eggs The ONE thing you don't want is an egg exploding in your bator. It's good to hear you've got some that are fertile - NOW it gets interesting.

Good to see your back, too YINEPU. I've basically stopped incubating & hatching. I got so I didn't like driving 2 to 3 hours to the near-by shows & driving 8+ to the one in Stockton CA. (I'm in OR) . Still have some of the birds, but I'm just giving them a comfortable place to live out their lives. I'm planning on getting some Buff Orpingtons this Spring & get this !!!!!!

They will be from a HATCHERY, first time in 50 + years.. There just for eggs.

I just took a duck egg outside and cracked it open. Not a thing. Looked just like one I would have for breakfast. Sort of. LOL. And this is day 8 for them.

Question , Why did you take it outside ? Break them into a cup. It kind of keeps them somewhat together (in a small area) & you don't have to go out into the rain.

 

[NestingHillsSC]

Didn't know if they would smell or not! I figured something out there would eat.

I know what you mean on traveling to the shows. It's 3 1/2 hours for me to get to the Salem show. I did the Stevenson show once' 5 1/2 hoirs to get up there and I got lucky with the traffic. I'm in OR also. I'm excited to go down to the show in Red Bluff on March 30th. I've got family in the area and they don't mind if I bring my special needs greyhound.

Well guys, I just couldn't take it. When to TSC and bought 8 Light Brahmas. Only $1.99 a piece. I needed my fix.

I'm going to use these sort of an experiment. Later in the spring early summer I'm getting breeder Light Brahmas. So I sort of want to see the difference. Then I can really tell and show people the difference.

But aren't they pretty.

I love my brahmas, they have such an interesting voice and so calm.
