That's good!

I have seen that incubator on there for a while. It looks too pretty to be any good...

But if you ever take up smoking cigars you have a place to keep them..

Threads on BYC have nothing bad to say about them but who knows.


It would be quite the cigar box!

I am thinking I need to sue someone in New Ulm. My hens have started eating eggs after being taught it in New Ulm. They were perfect little girls before that trip.


I hate to clip the beaks on a couple of them. It would ruin their chances next year. I have them in separate cages now at an angle, with no bedding so the eggs will roll into a protected area I made. Hopefully, they will get over this.


Also without thinking it through I put one of the hens on a table that has 7 roosters in cages around her....That livened up the table for a bit. It was like watching a ballet with all the synchronized dancing going on.

I think I am getting a humidaire incubator.... My mom is in love with this one and has already figured out where we are gonna put it... But we thought we would get opinions on it?? Does anyone know if they are good incubators?

Time was they were considered one of the best . Have not heard much about them in awhile .

I was going to clean carpets today but I skipped that too. Lazy days...

DH won t bones at a meat raffle so we had weber kettle steaks. Delish.

Sadie had test this weekend with neighbors up and e collar. Worked pretty good. She responds to the noise. No vibrate or shock needed. We still need to be aware where she's at but it's not too bad. The wire cable would be best but for as much as they are up and deer hunting season over. I think we can handle her behaviors and boundaries with this hands on approach.
