Silky hatch-along and OdoBan on eggs experiment

[Antiocheggers]

Yes, a female should already be broody once you order eggs. That way you will not waste money on eggs that will not be sat on. Depending on what you purchase, you should have a very good idea of what you are hatching. The only reason you wouldn't be is if you purchased a surprise pack or something like that. Even mix breed eggs would come with the list of the mature birds on the property. Hatching eggs with an incubator is so sooo fun. It's cute, it's entertaining, it's educational, but I wouldn't trade this sight for the worldView attachment 3725974. In my eyes, nothing can beat thisView attachment 3725975View attachment 3725976

Thank you, adorable! The way God intended it to be!

Awe! Perfect illustration of showing the hen-hatching side of this. So adorable! I do miss the days of seeing a train of nuggets following a fuzzy butt through the yard.

Thank you! It is a feeling like no other. It's

magical, it fills a place in your heart than nothing else can. We can raise chicks very well without a broody hen, but nothing will beat her. It is truly an honour to have broodies

It's simply perfection. Mom, looking all proud and alert, the cute fuzzies following her around. It took a lot of time for me to get a successful broody, but it's the most amazing thing I have experienced as a chicken keeper

Oh dear. Hubby passed out early so I'm on my own. G'nite sweet chickies!

 

[QueenofKings]

Dream little eggies, dream.

Good bye Slip! I hope you had dreams of a beautiful life in that cozy shell of yours.

Since your hubby is sleeping, I'll help out!


Goodnight, my love
The tired old moon is descending
Goodnight, my love
My moment with you is now ending

It was so heavenly
Holding you close to me
It will be heavenly
To hold you again in a dream

The stars above
Have promised to meet us tomorrow
'Til then my love
How dreary the new day will seem

So for the present, dear
We'll have to part
Sleep tight, my love
Goodnight, my love
Remember that you're mine, sweetheart

Sleep tight, my love
Goodnight, my love
Remember that you're mine, sweetheart

Goodnight Ember and Maple

Oh my goodness! I have not heard that song since I saw a rerun (obviously) of Shirley Temple singing that. Thanks, Tink for picking up the slack and providing that wonderful song!

No problem! When I was young I listened to a ton of jazz, I still have all my old CDs I listened to over and over and over. Lol! I started playing in jazz band in HS and got hooked.
