Okay so I have decided what I am going to set. I am going to set Wood Duck eggs, Silkies, SLP, and BLRW. I will be using a LG 9300 with a replaced thermostat by Incukit as my incubator, them I will be using the farm innovators for hatching if I need it. If I set my wood duck eggs a week before then I should be okay to hatch in the LG if not then I will need to transfer. super excited!!

EHAL isn't over yet and I'm already having problems. I have no idea what I'm going to do with all the chicks I hatch. Some of them are being kept, some are already spoken for, but the rest... I can't sell them to the feed store this time. The owner's son has taken a break from the poultry side of the business for a while and no one knows when they'll be buying again. They haven't even ordered chicks yet this year since he isn't there. Which means I can't get my guinea keets. Some of them were going to be traded for keets and the rest for feed and fencing for a new pen. That's how I always do it.

On another note, when I start collecting eggs for this hatch I'm going to label them by pen. Then I'll know exactly where the problem is. I'm pretty sure it's Blizzard and he probably has too many hens. I'll be fixing that as soon as I can afford some more fencing. Oddball is gonna be one happy roo.

CL Raz!!!! or FB poultry groups is awesome for selling local

I will be setting on April 10th not sure what all I will be hatching. I am going to take the weekend of May 1st off hoping they hatch on my birthday!!!

Bummer bout the internet. Was kinda drizzling this morning. Got enough mud outside to build a house with so I wouldn't mind if the rain stopped.
