Evening all...We have 12, maybe 15 new babies. Pix to follow once they arrive on my computer, which could be as late as tomorrow... slow internet here... I did my first ever assisted hatch tonight. I had three that were shrink wrapped in their membrane and just couldn't leave them to die. All three were oddly positioned in the egg and the membrane looked like shell. So those three are back in the bator with a half dozen eggs that haven't pipped yet. One internally pipped, so thinking about making an air hole in the shell... Generally, I'm opposed to assisted hatches based upon natures selective process, but I couldn't leave three live chicks to die. Guess I'm a softie...
Why is it dead? I wish I could sneak on from work..
You need a source of raw milk, salt and ice.... Then you could make your own.
KD, flying is great fun unless you have to grab the OH Sh1t bar and walk from there. I always got very angry when my drivers had to walk home.
ETA: Someone reply to this post so it's easy to find when pix arrive
Can't wait for photos. I miss having chicks about (and can't wait until we have the space to hatch out more than just quail). I always help because I figure it's most likely something I've done wrong in my set up.
Please share your ice cream recipe. I've never been 100% happy with ones I've tried but they've used straight cream. I can only drink raw milk so no problem with that part.
It's raining and horrible here. Our backyard is so boggy. The next few days are supposed to be reasonably fine but chilly. Yesterday the wind was bitterly cold. Its not quite so bad today but I'm sick of the wet already.
DMC your goodies look so yummy! Love those Cookie Monster ones.
