She said/He said Who's right? Who's wrong? No one!

In my town there are 2 families that heavily populate it, with very similar spelling of their names. Seems that somewhere back along the family tree, some one made a mistake on a birth certificate... So... If you divorce your wife, is she still your cousin????

For lock down, right? Someone else said: put the sponge in a dish of water. That will solve your problem. If it doesn't, get a bigger sponge.

Sounds like something my dad would do. He's old school all the way!

I can't tell you how often I've had a patie

nt "zing" me with a one liner that I didn't understand! Love it when that happens.


Just a case of mis placed feelings of superiority.

Perhaps you should save that one for a breeder. How cool to have a rooster that passes on genes for male eggs. But, then again, most likely, all of his eggs would be roosters. (before I get slammed with a genetics lesson.... JK!)
Didn't realize you're in the medical profession. You'll probably appreciate this one, 'tho it's a tad long: Dad was shot in the leg once while we were each guiding hunting parties on MD's Eastern Shore. After he came out of the OR & got to his room, he regained his senses & I introduced him to his roommate.
Dad: Hi. What are you in for?
Roommate: They say I've got Diabetes
Dad: Oh, yeah? My mother died of Diabetes.

I told Dad if I was ever hospitalized, don't come see me!

Yep... hate it when they start swapping storries: Mine is worse than yours! Or, that's what you got? Let me tell you about my great Aunt Zelda. She had that and... died 3 times from it before they buried her!
 
Hello again everyone! Work has calmed down for the week so hopefully I can actually follow along in here, lol.

I hatched some absolutely adorable chicks for the Halloween hatch a long that I need to post pictures of. I had a 100% hatch rate but unfortunately a freak accident killed one of them

Still, the others are doing great. I'm also getting ayam cemani eggs pretty steadily so those will be going into the 'bator on a regular basis.

Speaking of ayam cemanis, someone again started a new thread talking about them, this time dissing the American birds as a whole, calling them less desirable and hybrids. They also said that there were three lines in the states - the 'Indonesian' line (which would be illegal to own since you can't import from Indonesia so...), the European line (I guess the birds from GFF? But GFF doesn't guarantee color and breeds from imperfect birds, I have a picture to prove it, so I'm not sure why these are better than other breeder's flocks?) and the 'American' line, which apparently has terrible color leakage and look like hybrids.

I really have no clue what this person is talking about. There are three legal lines in the US that I know of, but they are the GFF lines, the TMA lines, and the Mike Bean lines - and yes, with the Mike Bean lines, I could see that they are possible hybrids, my guess is with leghorns, but that's not ALL American birds. No lines are named after countries/continents. I really have no clue where people come up with this stuff.

I know exactly where they got that info from. It's from their vent-hole. Perhaps someone should politely tell them they are full of crap and

them into their place. You know. Politely at first until you realize they're a moron.
Ohh I'm caught up again for the the first time in ages.

Kasey is sitting again. Started with 9 this time, but 2 got broken already. Also brought new silkies and frizzles at auction last week.

Got given some free silkie cockerel's as well.

Turns out the breeder that gave them to me is as good at sexing silkies as @scflock.
The one in the picture has layed 3 eggs since I've had it. Pretty good for a free "cockerel"

Seems like he's missing the first part of his name there if he's laying eggs.

And even then there weren't too sure so they buried her in the sandbox incase she needs to dig back out. It's got all the tools she would need.

My bator is plugged in and in test mode now. I reset the gauge in it to record the highs and lows. So far, the high and the low is exactly the same. 100 degrees and 20% humidity dry.

When and what kind of eggs are you going to set?
 
And flood the southeast

We haven't seen the sun since Saturday
It's been beautiful here!

Someone else has mentioned that to me, but I can't remember where I saw it. Cancer could easily be the cause of the random death of my hen that I posted about two weeks ago - she had no external signs of illness and just died for no discernible reason.
It was mentioned here a couple weeks back....lol

I dated a guy over 20 years ago that his 3 half brothers were his cousins....lol His mom had been in a relationship with a guy had 3 boys by him and left, then ended up marrying his brother and having three more boys by him. So the first three's step dad was their uncle.....lol

They are white silkies. From the pics I saw they are very nice. And if the person is honest then they hatched them from a good reputable breeder. I'm waiting to here back about them!
I will! They have some nice showgirls! How about taking a 6 hour ride???
wink.png

Yes, that's what I meant! I'll have eggs if they are laying but I won't be able to incubate them!
Oh good!!! I bet you'll find the other today!
I remember someone talking about draping a paper towel to make a wick?
lau.gif
I did not see it going in that direction either!!
Ok, I'll throw one in today! Thanks!
Happy you have lots of incubating ahead!! Lucky girl!! As for the thread, I would ask for references on the information.

good deal!!!
I can't stand a two hour ride to Syracuse....lol Do they ship eggs? lol

Hahahaha!!!! Awesome!! $ I want a cockerel that lays eggs!!!! Hahaha!!!

@RubyNala97

I have paper towels down as a barrier from the wire floor. Then I put 2 dishes in with sponges to wick up water. And the Wells are filled up in the base. And my humidity is holding at 52%. When I add warm water to it it will jump up to about 75% then after an hour it's back down to 52%. I don't understand!!!
