Ok I am catching up on some stuff
First of all anyone heard from Blessed?
Hope her DD is Ok. Last I heard she was getting a fever again
Also for those who went to CS how was Gretchen?
Had a great hatch with the crele polish. Will post a pic soon as I have a mo. Big healthy chicks except one that needed a hobbs splint.
Ended up with 3 healthy BLRW from Hoppy's last batch.
Also had a great hatch with the
ebay silkie/polish. They are so cute!! I have more of them cooking.
The
ebay polish eggs have not hatched at all!!! Started with 24, about half went to lockdown one pipped 24 hours ago but nothing since. I think that was my fault as the temp in the roll X was way too cold (95-6 ish).
I had a rooster (wheaten Maran) returned to me as he was too noisy and "scary for the 2 and 4 year olds" so we had him for 3 days while he was waiting to be rehomed. He got busy so it will be interesting to see if any of my own eggs are fertile!!!!!
He was a real sweetie and gorgeous, but in 2 days I already had "an inquiry" via the neighborhood watch about him. Oh well. Keep in mind here that we can hear noise from the horse park and Del Mar racetrack and each morning and hear all the feral/dumped cockerels down at the horse park. anyway don't want to upset the neighbors. Currently they are all really nice.

What do you do in DC? Goverment Grant? CDC? Report to the pentagon on your progress with mutant chickens?

Maybe you can make a side trip to visit some of your new chickens friends?
Yea... I review research grants for the National Institutes of Health (wish they would give me a few more). I will be there again on the 9-11th June.
Talking of mutant chickens. I have had no luck with the double yolkers. Anyone got any or know of someone who does?
Wthchristi: if your DH has banned you from auctions does that mean you won't be bidding on the ameracunas?? I am semi banned too but as far as eggs go "don't ask don't tell" works for me, and I do sell the chicks fairly quickly.
Sem: glad to hear about the mule
Nat, Did miss something or is your duckling OK?
OK off to get some peafowl eggs (DH also does not know about
).
