Hey guys. My chicks would be pipping today except thanks to a faulty incubator and a smidgen of operator error, who batch killed less than 48 hrs prior to hatch.
So. Yeah. This time I am done for the year. Turning me attention to dealing with the owner of the bator re:it's borrowed and it broke while in my care. If you recall it broke halfway through my last failed batch.
Then I don't know. This was pretty devastating. Also sucking bigtime is I gave some of the eggs to a friend to put under her broody which are now starting to pip and mine should have been too...the only thing worse than survivor's guilt is not being the survivor I guess.
Otherwise chickens doing well. Laying eggs. Too cold for the bees and they haven't come out in days.
