I do kinda resemble Jaws when I haven't had my Mornin' Joe! Oh... you meant to help me get coffee; not shoot harpoons at me.
Some mornings it's a team effort. And you are officially on my Team!

Emus sleeping. They ate all their kale like good little kids.

So Pretty!!

Quote: Oh, ok. Well I wouldn't really consider that chick a runt. There really aren't runts in chickens, some could just be smaller because of the egg size that they hatched out of. Usually the first ones to hatch are the strongest and the last ones are not technically the weakest it just be because they are females, or they took a bit longer to form. And that's fine. I know people who do the same thing as you, but I actually like runts they are my favorite, I just think its good to give runts a chance they are equally the same as all the others, but they are just a tad smaller. Hows your hatch going?

You might also have a cold spot in your incubator which would result in delayed growth.

Female emus actually make a sort of booming noise that sends out waves of sound vibration. It is pretty cool. I think it is what echo location would sound like if you could hear it!

Here are some day 10 ducks.

Thank you! Your eggs look amazing. I tried to take some photos but I just can't get a pic that shows you anything. I am pretty sure I have 9 that are DIS or Infert. And some of my developing 11 look kinda lopsided. But I have some that look perfect, like yours.
Shweeew! I am new at this incubating thing but comparing my previous hatch to this SHIPPED EGGS ARE AN ENTIRELY NEW BALLGAME.

Thank you so much for your help. I REALLY appreciate it.

Yes, shipped eggs can be an entirely different ballgame. This time around I've got a lot of clears as well but will wait until day 14 or 18 to pitch them.

Well I candled all 7 of my eggs this morning, all are forming except for one.

Super excited! I love my incubator it has great hatch rates, and usually all of my eggs that form will hatch.
