Celtic, I will be moving the last two hatchlings to brooder soon. I am sure they will be loud in the process. It will be neat to hear the goslings react.
QJ, LOWER humidity.

I've got it down to 50 now. And I penciled the air cell to check for progress.

They are still moving away in there.

But my air cells look about a week too small. So I'm going to __________ humidity.

Fill in the blank. I think the answer is lower.

Correct. Lower.

Well done. Gold star and Teacher's Pet of the Year prize.

Hubby is on his phone (internet) looking for acreage. I LOVE that right now.

QJ, your hubby is a good boy.

Utah, that's wonderful about the twisted, malformed duckling being a whole heap less twisted and malformed. Pretty amazing really. Well done!

 

[QuackerJackFarms]

Correct. Lower.

Well done. Gold star and Teacher's Pet of the Year prize.

You know what messes me up with that? It's because I'm a very visual person. So I'm associating too low of an air cell with a rise in humidity, to make it bigger. It messes with me because I can't visualize the humidity. So it's messing with my brain.

Go with it.

Oh BTW: 70 and SM- The hubs insisted that I send you both a bottle of _______ and _______ . (not going to tell you the names.) But one is made in Lawrence, KS (Thought you'd like that 70)

So those will be sent off shortly to you both.

Do silky chickens make much noise?

Yeah, I buy that.

But think about it more like washing on the line. It's too wet, so you need to dry it out more. Think about more dryness rather than less humidity.

They are so sweet. You're in trouble. Julie has silkies, but mine were very quiet and calm. So so calm.


So are the cochins. Those are probably my fav.

Excellent. THANKS!!
