The 7th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-A-Long!

[chattery41]

Here's the eggs set in the new "cabinet cooler bator" :

Yes, I know that bottom turner is empty, but need better air circulation before putting any eggs down there.

And the rest are double-stacked in the Genesis 1588 egg turner - top layer newest eggs & bottom layer of eggs due to hatch on the 11th. So, will be moving them to the hatcher Tomorrow!

I've double stacked many times & as long as there is a( rubber band around the egg turner motor & "channel"), it does just fine. You're "not supposed to", but the warranty ended way before this!

I just check them a few times a day, as sometimes the top eggs fall over on their side.

Can you take a pic and show this ?

Hummm I wonder if I should give updates like Razadia. This way if I disappear in the middle of it my chicken crazed friends can alert the cops of Fowl

play.

Oh pray for my little boy. He spiked a fever of 101 last night and spent most of the night crying that his ear hurt. I've got dr appointment in 45 mins. I hope it's not another ear infection. They said many more and we will be looking at tubes.

On a different ,chick related note, I had to tend a few cases of pasty butt last night and my older chicks took a trip outside for a min this morning. They huddled in a corner of the area I set up in the coop so I brought them back in. It started raining and my power cord has a break. Safety first.

I have a son that suffered often with ear infections. They are so painful. I hope they can get it under control fast..just have to wait for the anti-biotic to kick in. My son had the tubes. What a changed boy from then on! Wonderful thing to have done for them if that's what the doc suggests.

I'm so excited to enter all of these photo contests...I get a chance to use my nice camera my DH bought me. I love taking photographs!

Can't wait to see them! I really enjoy the photos I see taken with great cameras..I just have a little cheap Canon. At least it's a Canon.

Tiny, tiny little thing.

I am so so sorry

Hello, sorry to hear about your son. I know I don't know you, but over 6 yrs ago when I met my husband my daughter attended public school and daycare and was sick often (colds, sore throats, ear infections and all the other standard kid illnesses. My husband purchased a silver lungs generator to make colloidal silver with and my daughter hasn't seen a doctor for an illness since that day. When our ears hurt we drink some and drop some in our ears, use it in a nasal spray bottle for stuffy noses, drink it when I have a stomach ache, almost anything....coupled with clean eating (the Abs Diet for women) and it always works!!! Our puppies survived Parvo without every seeing a vet and we used colloidal silver. It has been around for thousands of years. People use to eat with real silverware, drink out of silver goblets, and they would drop a pure piece of silver in barrels of water to keep it from growing bacteria and going stagnant. You can buy it at the store, but for a very high price and not the quality (40 parts per million) you can produce at your own home for much less. Silverlungs.com
I hope someone reads this and finds it as useful as we have. I have asthma too and it comes with a nebulizer kit and I've used it many times for my asthma and for a severe lung infection my husband had climbing under the cabin (Moldy and musty)
If anyone has any questions or wants to know more feel free to ask me

By the way, I love Colloidal Silver for washing our eyes out when they feel like they are getting infected.

Here's an interesting photo..someone had a hen die, opened it up, and saved these and put them down in order to take the photo.
