How's the fertility on Steve's eggs?

Horrible
over half had no bullseye
The CX mix hens are bigger than him and he doesn't hit the mark on most of his breeding that I have seen.

Going somewhere nearby requires a 15 min drive for me. I don't have that kind of time to waste on people who can't be on time. Only 3/10 are on time.

So far people have been pretty good about it. The lady yesterday got lost so I drove further to find her. She was old and frail and on 02.

Yes
Still going to mark so they don't breed?

I thought it was a too long in the egg issue.

I thought it was a too long in the egg issue.

Could be, but also could be genitic along with incubator issue, poor parent nutrition and something else I can't remember

Good morning watchers! I have chick pics . . .

They sent them in a double box, and put some green gel in it that the chicks had totally eaten when I picked them up. I got the cute chick thermometer al a local estate sale, they were right in there wanting to be warm.

The trip was OK, but if they were valuable chicks I would do Express. They were loud & hungry. One did not make it. Ordered 26, just counted again, 25 chicks. So they did not send an extra one. The P.O. clerk thought that they were OK because they were making so much noise, but they were screaming for food and water!

The yellow ones are white rocks, they are noticeably bigger than the others. They stomp over the others to get to the food & stand in the center eating all of it!
