Okies in the BYC The Original

[Buckguy20]

I had a neat ecperience this morning when I came home from taking my son to school.
It was snowing some nice flakes as I turned into our driveway and there were two deer standing there.
They seemed oblivious to me and I sat and watched them for about 15 minutes as the snow flakes swirled around them.
Then they just moseyed off.

TJ's Na-Na :

PoultryandBees -
Thanks again for sticking it out with us
through labor and delivery last night.........LOL We had
done the mineral oil and then I cut my little fingernail and
got a blob of vasoline and inserted that and rubbed it all
around the end of the egg. Bill applied pressure in
downward strokes until we could see the end of it.
Finally, about 11:00 - touchdown. !

I am glad things turned out well in the end. Are you gonna save that egg as a momento?​

I have made the plunge, spent yesterday gathering up all of my equipment and supplies needed to get my homemade incubator built. I still have yet to decide on the cabinet design, I may just go simple or all out just don't know yet. wish me luck.

no white stuff here...just dry and cold and windy

Al - make sure and have at least two bathrooms in the design

There was an argumant going on another thread about hatch rate...some folks don't think you should count eggs that were not fertilized since you didn't affect them. I agree with the 85%...if you put it in the bator and it doesn't hatch then yup...

Yeah...lots of food push that point...heck my wife is coming! Tell him there will be other folks there that are against the addiction and they can have a hate chicken rally or something...we will still feed them

We leave out tomorrow. Will hunt Sat-Mon...

Rough life but someone has to live it! Gotta love in-laws...at least mine! We are all going so it should be fun...even the Mama and the Grandma will be there!

I ain't gotta do dishes! Cuz they won't wait for guy time! The boys are a little concerned about whether or not they get to bring guns. I have raised them right

We will probably try and shoot a varmit or two dozen!!! There is a hog tearing stuff up!

My daughter's BF is going to the lake with us on spring break.

I am wondering if I get to bring a gun too? I do plan to take some wire and a few cement blocks. Never know when they might come in handy.

Hey look at the bator I found on Craigslist in Ft. Smith

Al - use that bator that Don found as a template!

I never understood why someone would want to go sit in a hot room and sweat to relax. Sweating is what I do when I work...relaxation is being cool!

Wonder if that thing has an A/C!
