Did you see any modern game bantams at the auction? Not sure if anyone in the stillwater area or anyone that comes to that auction has any...

Hey Marybeth, I picked up a cool gadget in a pile of junk, it is used to retrieve golf balls, works great as an egg getter!!! Has an aluminium telescopic handle and a wire basket on the end to pick up the balls(eggs) with!!! And best of all, mine was FREE in a pile of scrap metal!!!

You should have asked Jaxon to show you the madagascars. He would have done that for you. They are a pretty blue splash.
Yes, he was very proud to have recovered the madagascar egg before they ate it. They have been laying them at the end of the 6 foot long pen where there isn't any access, then eating them before we can get them out of there. You have to put a stick in between the wire of the cage and sort of hockey putt it back to the end of the cage where the opening is.
I bought the A-frame they are in at the Fletcher auction and like the design - except if I ever make any - I want to have access at both ends.

I have used a plastic spaghetti spoon like thingy taped to a stick before but Like greybear said. the golf ball things are the best.
Maybe you could build a nest box with access from the outside of the pen. That what I am gonna do on a few of my smaller breeding pens.

Greybear - I have been looking for one of those golf ball retreivers, since even before I got the A-frame. If you decide to sell it, let me know.

Monty - I have been saving a spagetti spoon for the purpose of gathering eggs but hadn't thought about duct taping it to a long stick. Thanks for the suggestion!

you can handturn in a hatcher and make it a bator...its also the cheapest pricewise...
