You'll be blue by the second hatch

Guess that means you will be worthy of the Am eggs this spring

I hope so!

I think I was delirious with the thought of Queenie having to throw a parade. Thanks for

ing me back to my senses

And here's another just for good measure...

I'm soooo happy for you! Looks like it was meant to be because now you don't even have to travel! You lucked out! I never find brinsea's on my CL!! Can't wait to follow your first hatch in it. And SC can help you through it so that's perfect. Congrats!!

Thank you! Now let's just hope nothing falls through on the deal!

Of course, if you'd gone over to the red side, you just might have gotten that parade!

A parade isn't worth culling chicks 3 days later...
Go Blue!

Just wait. You get that thing up and running, and you will be

ing people left and right.

Silkie, I saw you ask this weekend, and I don't know if I ever answered. This hatch is BCM

I REALLY wanted to see the parade - can't you borrow some?

You still have some pips though, right?

Ok cool.


Is cat food bad for chickens?

Had 2 this morning, and I haven't totally given up on the others, but the timeline of this hatch has been consistent with past hatches. Any vigorous chicks left will hatch today. I will leave it running through tomorrow, and if any hatch they will start looking sticky, possibly have leg or feet issues. I will shut down tomorrow night, no matter what. I'm not saying this to look like mean Mr. Flock. This is how I hatch. I have had to cull almost every chick that hatched after day 23, and I hate killing fluffies. I would rather them die in the shell. The only difference with this batch is I will probably eggtopsy to see what happened. I usually don't even do that, but this is the first batch from my BCM, so I need to see if I did something wrong, or if the chicks weren't ready. The chicks that are out are the fattest, heaviest chicks I have ever seen. Maybe the remaining eggs weren't big enough

It's called cat food for a reason

My serious answer is it is probably way too high in protein and fat
