Thank you, Sooner. I missed you! You were always the energizer bunny
Kyz, we can kick each other if we mess up this time!
Don, I hope you know how jealous I am over the Bantam Delawares Nana got lol I had been going to order some from the hatchery and changed my mind. I'm going to wait til Nana's start laying and I'm going to plead for eggs. Those birds are so beautiful! I know she's thrilled to get them.
Alright, I'm either going to learn to caponize or process birds. I'm tired of worrying over too many males. I think I like the idea of learning to caponize. I was always a spay/neuter advocate in dog rescue so I figure it's right up my alley

I have 2 EE cockerels free if anyone here wants them. Hatched ~ 8/5/2013. Located in Mustang.

Hey. One of my Cochin/Orloff eggs that were due to hatch 2 days ago has pipped (in the wrong place) and is peeping like crazy. I peeled about 1/3 of the shell away but left the inner membrane on him. I can see veins running along inside the inner membrane and I can't tell but it doesn't look like the yolk is absorbed all the way.
I'm wracking my brain trying to remember if I had maybe put those eggs in 4 days later because the 1st Coch/Orloff ones weren't fertile. I've been keeping it real humid in there just in case and I see movement in several of the others. The hardest thing to do is let them be but that's what i need to do.

Elwood I had to take that top one. Maddie happens to have blue hair right now!!

Hi Sooner! How are you?
It must be homecoming week.

 

[Sooner]

Here's to hoping my Kindle will let me post.
Keane & Betsy I have missed this place to but life gets in the way. Glad to see the board still moving along!
You guys wouldn't reconize Maddie.
I am still doing chickens but Maddie hasn't been showing so I have just been doing my layers. Getting ready for some meat birds in a couple of weeks.

Hi Sooner, nice to see you on byc again!

 

[Sooner]

Doing great MJ! How are you doing??
Anyone doing any new stuff lately?
I have fruit treess going, got my first peaches this year. Started honey bees, should have got honey this year but got lazy instead. Meat birds are my new project.
