How many going into lockdown?

I haven't candled any yet and may not.
I set 51 but I'm expecting many won't be good.

Have you ever had a egg explode in a incubator?
I candled last night, only 4 quitters

Like maybe 3 times in my life. Once was when I went to pick one up.
I think I can still smell it a little bit on my hand and it was a few years ago.

I remember that one. I still laugh.

When I was very very little my grandfather had me bury a dove egg thinking it was a tortoise egg. That part of the garden smelled horribly for three years

Do you remember when he stepped on a Lego or something and threw a hole tray in the floor?

Also, Moony, what are you feeding your birds? Mine are not laying well at all and I'm thinking of switching things up.

I get my layer feed from a local mill that mills their own.
Same feed I was feeding during the whole OMG my chicken feed has been tainted Era.
I think mine are laying pretty decent. I started a bit early for here and have quite a few pullets so I didn't expect a lot. I can only set a certain amount so I seperated out enough to be covered if I got about 50% or 60% per day. I set every 7 days and last week I had a few more then enough for the week by day 5.

Which makes me wonder, is the chicken feed ok again?
