IVE CREATED A MONSTER!!!!!! My husband just texted me saying he's sold about 20 of our blk Australorp and Australorp/white leghorn chicks..... Not a bad thing... Bad thing.... I've got NONE! My incubator is full and now I'm collecting eggs to meet the needed chicks.

good thing most of the eggs are bantam eggs and I can organize.

The little chick died. I think maybe it had the cord around its leg and the yolk came out? I'm not sure. The yolk had ruptured also.

He's helping your incubating addiction.

Thanks.

Sad right

he got mad that I had eggs in the incubator for my friend. He said we were done for the spring so I was helping her. Now I'm the bad guy because he can't fit 50 in there. Only about 20-25

I'll be doing this again

My lock down eggs are hatching!! nobody home right now to give me an update, but last update I got 2 hours ago was 3 hatched, and at least 7 pips!

I made the mistake of counting all the eggs I have in my staggered hatches. It never seems like that many when you only set a few each time, but NOT counting the eggs in Lock down and NOT counting the 60 I'm hatching for someone else, I have 107 eggs currently incubating.

I have 13 babies from my hatch last week, I have 37 babies from the Easter hatch, and about 40 from earlier hatches. Since I had 3 deaths, I sent one off to be necropsied and I don't want to sell any until I get a cause of death. I'm running out of space.....

I am sad, Prince has died........ I enjoyed his music a lot. I will name my next chick after him.
