Good morning. Hubby thinks i have "too many" birds. I have 7 turkeys, 10 adult guineas, 28 chickens, and over 100 quail. I don't count quail, they are too small to count. And i have a bunch of juvenile guineas, about 17. Plus the babies in brooders....

I bought SG Dorking eggs from a breeder. She had moved an Ameraucana rooster out and moved the SG Dorking rooster into the pen. She waited two weeks to start collecting eggs and one of them that I hatched was

That is why I wait 35 days to collect eggs after putting them in the breeding pen.;)

I hate having to replace mine, until it started blowing fuses it was a nice microwave. The only thing I didn't like was it kept beeping every 30 seconds after stuff was done to "remind" you about your crap in the microwave. I thought after that first fuse it was good but second fuse says it probably has a capacitor going bad or maybe the magneto. I do wonder why the red stuff is so much cheaper, I thought red was popular. I figured that wonk green would be cheap but nope.:)

Here everything is that beachy Pinterest-y ladies magazine-y aqua color.
Can you tell I’m not a fan?
My next door neighbors house though (the rabbit lady) is like walking into a Barbie house a’la 1976.
Pink.
Pink.
And more pink.
But with splashes of the aforementioned aqua and ornamental seashells and inspirational beach themed knick knacks galore.
Her bedroom Is the showpiece though, like the room was lifted from a Zsa Zsa Gabor museum. There’s lace and tule and dangling pom-poms, fluffy AND sparkly pillows piled high, and rose colored lighting to boot.
DH told me he’d sleep on the couch before sleeping in a room that looks like a 6 year old girls bedroom.

You might be scratching your head and wondering how we know this so before you get any weirdo ideas, I’ll tell you the story.
We got a middle of the night phone call!
Her husband passed out in the bathroom a couple years ago and somehow kicked the toilet fill line with his foot on the way to the ground.
She takes ambien so he laid unconscious for quite some time before she woke up to the sound of water running and when she finally woke up the whole bedroom floor was inches deep.
That man was lucky he passed out on his back or he would have drowned.

Yup. Got a hundred stories about them.

:thumbsup

five years ago or so, an poultry expert gave a talk at a poultry show. He presented that a new cock bird would "push out" The sperm of the older cock bird. He did present the percentage of chicks from each parent and there were chicks listed up to 30 days.

Sadly many that heard the talk focused on the pushed out stuff not the fact that you will get offspring from both roos for a long time. Since it hits about 50% at two weeks, they heard that as the time to start collecting the eggs.

I have a suspicion that a lot of breeding programs were messed up by that. The breeders had offspring from roosters that they did not pick
 
Cripes, they sound like quite a pair! The kicker about that dumb color is around December it was cheap and red was expensive so the coffee maker I have now is that color and I was going to get the microwave to match. But now it is backwards! I like to have a little matching going on, but i'm not crazy enough to go way more expensive to match that weird color. That is just crazy, at least to me.:)
