Eden sold her eggies...Eden sold her eggies

Good for you and me who didn't let myself get tempted. Even though my incubator has been empty for 4 weeks and I bought a brinsea that I haven't used.

The best thing about pumpkins are the guts, you know That was my favorite part of carving pumpkins growing up. Now I just think of all the wasted chicken food!

Also, to keep stiring that pot you have going -- "Pictures or it didn't happen!"

Pumpkins are good for a worm preventive, I plan on drying them out and fermenting them in their feed.

I would but I still want to hold out for Blacks and have a pm out for some Wheaten eggs, after it took me 30 mins trying to figure out who I got them from before. Kim when your Black pen is together l will be first in line for those

I can't wait they are gorgeous. My black pullet looks like that also. I think I will use the splash with the girls. Then I can get all three right

Is this where I admit it's October and I still have my incubators running (regular incubation, lockdown incubator, and dry off incubator)? With the red splits I'm at full capacity + 2 - so two eggs must be hand turned now. When these guys hatch I'm either going to have to move the brooder box into the basement, make a new one so I don't have lug the other one inside, or resign myself to a winter of parking outside. Brrrr.
