Don’t listen to the music it will hypnotize into believing Dux hater! @jaykayhuff have you tried putting mealworms, corn or dog food in a can with a lid and teaching them that shaking that can gets them something tasty to eat?

If I am carrying anything in my hands (It could be a stick) they come running because they are a bunch of hungry hippos and think everything revolves around them and treats. But they just would not fall for it last night. I had their normal plate of bananas and peas that they get for their bedtime snack that I typically get trampled over for and they just took off in the opposite direction. I was dumbfounded....

Mine love the rain and get totally stupid at night, but meal worms seem to work most of the time.

Yeah they were not normal what so ever. My stage 5 clinger didn’t even try and follow my back inside either. They were just acting like crazy animals splashing around in their pool and chasing each other all over the yard. Maybe too many earth worms affects their cognitive abilities

Ducks do love a good soak... I accidently flooded my run yesterday and I've never seen them so keen to go home.

There's plenty of mud to go around here!! Ducks are loving it...me, not so much!

@Tooshay89 has the pupper arrived?

Is that Aussie slang for beer?

Good morning folks

Are you using the incubator to transport chicks?

Yes Miss I did!
We've got a power inverter, and it was the easiest way to keep them warm. Then... I forgot my own chick at her house lol. I had the thought process of "empty incubator, job done." Half way home I get a call "Did you know you left your chick here?" Oops!

The Polish eggs came in this morning! The PO actually called me too. First time ever for eggs. At 5:45am (I was awake until 4:am with tooth pain), I was ready to answer the phone with a less than pleasant ROARRRR. I heard the letters USPS and the joy just overwhelmed the bear in me.

This seller did a great job with packaging, and labeling. It was so well done I had to repack it just for pictures. There was also bright orange fragile stickers on each side too.

They also sent 3 extra eggs. Someone is getting a raving review today.
