So........

[Buster]

I have had interest in my chicks locally plus a friend is buying all the ones that I can hatch that I don't sell locally, so I made a deal with DW that I would keep 3 dozen eggs on hand for her to sell to people or give away or use for eating and when I get three dozen again I'll start collecting for setting in the bators again.

Well, I still had a dozen eggs in the refrigerator yesterday when I set 4 dozen in the Sportsman and today I am back up over 3 dozen eggs in the frig. Time to start collecting for setting again. This goes FAST! I think I'll fill that bator in no time. I get about 7 dozen eggs a week. Very soon I'll have my buffs and BBS orps separated back into breeding pens. I can hardly wait!

there is a sucker born every minute.

you can't leave the bator empty for 5 minutes...

I'm pretty sure this is why I am not letting myself buy a bator! It is very tempting though!

Nope- I got down to 1 egg left and set 4 dozen.

I forgot to include the eggs in the Hovabator.

Well, I'm not doing this for fun- I have these pre-sold. I am selling all I can locally and then with the ones left I'm selling to a friend until she has 200.

So what happens when the Sprtsman is filled. Or did you order another one already?

That was exactly what I was thinking!!

Does she realize how many eggs you get??

What do you mean "when the addiction takes over", Shelley? Looks to me like it's a done deal!

Buster, you might as well order one of those incubators that are the size of a small bedroom. Looks like you're going to need it very soon! Oh, and you can just send your Sportsman to me since you won't be needing it any longer!!
