The 5th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[tommysgirl]

Tomorrow is set day for Button Quail!​

When is the set date for hummingbirds again???

When you get back, wipe the eggs with a damp (warm) washcloth. Make sure you clean out any gunk in the shavings (or whatever you use for bedding in the nest) as it will attract flies.

Thanks so much...I might as well candle them while I am at it right??

I have babies hatching again

So far, a pair on the rhodebars & I lost a spare male over night. 8 new rainbow layers also running around the brooder.

The few I peaked at in my bator have spiders in also. Trying to be good and leave the eggs alone..however I am hand turning this time due to so many eggs and it is just too hard to resist a little peak.
