Sorry to hear about your babies. I know nothing about that disease, sorry. I hope you get a better hatch next time. I had a great hatch for Feb. (100% hatch from muddler6, bantam cochins) The eggs from march were great too. I have 7 babies (a couple are silkie x cochin, the rest appear to be full??) But great hatches either way. I don't get that great from bought eggs, so can't complain there. I know that you did the best you could on the swap and please know that I do not hold anything against you. I just bowed out, and it was not quite as graceful as I hoped. But I will think about the next one, ok? I lost my job so not sure how much hatching I will be doing and not sure if I will have eggs available. If I have eggs but don't need eggs right then, I may do it anyway and just ask that my shipment be held. Anyway, thanks for your offer, you are a sweetheart.
