Such a cute butt!

I will by some OdoBan at the first opportunity and use it here on eggs that are not squeaky clean. Lots of my eggs are coming from a rollout nest box. I hope to start setting 14 eggs each week that will be dual purpose crosses between Bresse and Delaware and Bresse and White Giants. We shall see how that goes. It will be a long time off before we have silkies. I have a customer that has a few silkies and if he hasn't dispatched his rooster I may can get a couple dozen eggs from him in exchange for some of my meat crosses.

There are a couple of internal pips in the NR360 (shipped eggs.) The third OB egg didn't jump out of its shell like the other two did and don't see a pip. It's early yet though. One of the ones with the OB has pipped internally too.

I'm pooped so going to bed hours before my normal time. The incubators are on their stand in our bedroom so any peeping will wake me up. I'll post an update if I can drag my butt back here to the office.

Good night all, and thanks for everything. I'm so excited!

My 3rd silkie is out. First one is a black, then a blue, and now a splash if down color holds true.

I'd like to have a white one now.

Goodnight, get some rest, I hope you wake up to more pips and chicks!

Sneaky little buggers aren't they? You want just one or two, then you get them, and then all of a sudden you need more

Goodnight eggies, let's hope tomorrow we'll get to know a lot more of you

I probably can't get the CEO's approval but was looking at a box of 25 earlier tonight already hatched and ready to feed.
