Thank you... Actually she is a mutt.... she is small, though not as small as a real bantam, most likely she is a silkie mix, she does have feathers on her feet. I bought her as a pullet from a lady who had no idea what breeds any of her birds were or where most of them even came from.... she said she had gotten a bunch at a feed mill a couple of years before and they ran wild on her property. She lays a beautiful green egg when she isn't raising chicks (she is a 2 or 3 time a year broody)

Thanks. My flashlight isn't exactly the best. We have a couple really good LED ones. ... with dead batteries lol. I took the kids out this morning before school and showed them the light green one that we actually could see and then we did a freshly laid silkie egg. They thought it was fascinating (so did I lol). I'm thinking that they're all developing since they almost all had the same dark area. Especially now after checking the fresh egg. I need to go get some batteries lol

Yes, LED are the best to use for cnadling. I can really see through my brown eggs now that I got a LED light, makes it so much easier.

hubby found me one of his really good military flashlights today. It's not LED I don't think but it's EXTREMELY powerful. It better be. The batteries for it were $8 each! I'll find out tonight. The other one is LED and it only takes AAA so maybe I'll charge a couple batteries for it as a backup.


Loving the broody pics! Here's mine :)

Cloud is quite content and is doing an amazing job. She only leaves the nest for about 20 mins in the morning to eat and poop and gets right back to it. I never knew how big she could fluff herself up but she shows me every time I open the lid to check the other boxes lol. She has 7 eggs.

little Cookie is doing pretty good. She gets kicked off the nest here and there by others who want to lay and she occasionally gets back on the wrong nest *rolls eyes*. I've been keeping my eyes on her. She stays on her nest once she's in the right spot but her eggs have gotten pretty chilly a couple times. I'm just hoping not too cold. Find out in 2 weeks I guess. I'll just keep checking. Hopefully the flashlight works through those dark eggs tonight for me to check. She has 4.
 
Hello from West Chester! I didn't even know this thread existed until someone in the ducks forum directed me to it to get an answer to a question I posted there.

I'm planning to start showing next season, so I'm trying to find a way to get my AI testing done at a reasonable price.I had to call around to several avian vets to even find one of those who can do it, and it's going to cost around $300. That's going to run into a lot of money if we have to have it done every month or two, so I'm really hoping some of you can give me some other alternatives.

Thanks for any suggestions, and it's GREAT to see that there's a PA thread!
