Speaking of girls night out, have any of you, esp Amy, Ross, Ruby, and WV, seen Mom's Night Out? It's pretty funny

No, I haven't. So sorry to hear about your birds. No matter how many you loose it's not easy.

Good with cattle was first, though. You are killing me today

Been busy catching up at work today...I obviously missed something but I have no idea what. Want to share the post link?

Not to jump on the lost chick bandwagon, but 2 of the smallest BCM were dead when I got home. They were a good bit smaller than the rest, and had been acting puny, but I was holding out hope. 2 other small ones are also not nearly as vigorous as the big ones. I'm down to 10 now, maybe 8. The 8 strong ones are very lively, eating, drinking, and starting to flit around, but I'm not sure why I'm having these after hatch deaths. There's no outward signs of them being sick other than small and lethargic. I don't know if it's due to incubation, pullet eggs, or just born sick. Hopefully the next round will go better. These eggs are a good deal larger, and maybe the lower humidity will help

Sorry to hear about your chicks....what was your hatch rate %?

 

[silkiecuddles]

SC, so sorry to hear that! At least you still have 8!

Well that just sucks. Out of curiosity, do you use medicated feed?

It seems I've found a contact for some golden sebright eggs! She is going to collect some for me next week, so when I get my Brinsea, I'll be ready!! Probably some OEGBs too. Yeah!!
