Well then, if I were you I would load up the runs with as much material as poss, so they are high and dry, then get yourselves a houseboat.Yep, CRS...
We ARE the drainage moat!
Need a wind up alarm to put next to it... just a thought...
It got slow, I was bored. I'll be Mr. Nice Guy again on Tuesday for WV's parade
Don't be bored, it must be beer o'clock by now.
I use anything that has carbon that isn't an arm and a leg. come fall i will be loading up with leaves. even bringing bagged leaves from the side of the road that someone else raked up. they are free and dry out quickly. I read somewhere that someone made a drainage moat around their run to help run off. It may have been right here.
Let me know how that works for you.
I had that CD...LOVED it.
I actually prefer to hand turn and have had my two best hatch rates hand turning.
I was just walking by. I can't help what she did, I wasn't even looking
My guess is that you'll end up with either lighter brown than the Marans, or green/olive. My EE roo over brown egg layers, white egg layers, and Aqua egg layers is giving a nice blend of tan, blue, and aqua. Combs are straight, pea, kind of rose, and walnut. My chicks are almost 100% gender id-able at hatch.
I'm really fond of using a sponge. Remember... it's surface area that matters, so your 1 x 2 may be just fine because of all the holes in it. The surface of each of these holes adds up so that the 1 x 2" may actually be = to many square inches. To counteract the rapid drying of the wet sponge, just set it in a small cup, and it will constantly wick water from the cup. Keep the cup full: voila! If that sponge is not big enough to do the job, add an other or take it out and use a bigger one.
another 40 minutes for me. First game of the season tonightDon't jinx me!

All of my nns have pink skin even the silkie mix one. The silkie/nn has the 5 toes but not the silkie skin coloring. They all have annoying bowties too. I thought for sure I'd get some clean neck nns from my pullet hatch as I thought 2 nns produced half clean necks, but either I misunderstood or my roo isn't as dominant as I thought. All 4 of my nn hen's eggs that I incubated were nn chicks- with bow ties and the only other nn from the 20 eggs was the silkie nn.
You sound like my brother...Just run it. If it breaks, Ravyn will feel bad and send you one
