I don't know exactly what size they are, but my ducks have always layed in my cat covered litterbox I have for them and the chickens to lay in on the coop floor. They've been pretty good about using them, and it's a lot easier than an egg hunt every morning when they use them. Shavings would work. I use leaves my friends and neighbors mulch and bag for me, rake grass clippings in the summer, straw, hay, shavings, whatever I have.
If you fence off a secure run for them, I'd keep the water out there and the food inside. It'll help teach them to come inside to eat, so they'll come in on their own when you let them free range. The water outside will help cut down mess and wet bedding.

Thanks for the tips!! We'll be sure to do that!

Who can recommend a good candler. Like a real one. I'm getting discouraged with my situation.

I bought a RayoVac flashlight. Let me try to find the model number for you, It is FANTASTIC!!

Its not a really small flashlight but it is powerful. I have an actual candler too but my flashlight works better, It is an LED with 150 Lumia, which the guy at True Value said is really powerful. I can see through those little german chicken orange and green eggs I have.

Those are the guy I got mine from. I had 6 out of 8 bullseyes going, but I'm not seeing veining. I'm frustrated. Why do I let these eggs get to me?!?

How do you see bullseyes without cracking them open?
I had a lot of calls start but not ever get past day 3 or so. Was just figuring it's cause they were shipped, and probably got too cold somewhere too.

Cool. I was going to email him and find out where the parents were from. and all that good stuff before I put my bid on auction sniper. was there a lot of bidders on the one you won?
