Yeah, hand turning because I can't fit them in my most trusted incubator with the turner, and they are shipped, so I wanted to be as gentle as possible. I am only doijng it three times a day, and it is not always consistent, bit trying to do eight am and then two pm and then eight pm.

Aww, there's gotta be SOMEONE. 7 months to find them!

I was wondering if you could help Dan
I had to kill a young Copperhead today. It was in our driveway. My mom nearly stepped on it. She would have if I didn't point it out.

I had one run-in with an adult copperhead when I was about six. Thank goodness I knew what it was and went and got my grandfather who then chopped his head off with a shovel.

That's good! I'm glad it didn't bite you. I've ran in with a FEW! rattlesnakes (I have a good story for all of them lol), 3 Copperheads, some black snakes, and maybe some other species.

Ugh. So annoying! Were you planning on hand turning this batch? I'm hand turning 43 right now and I'm only on day 5 and already loosing it. Lol
Farm sitter? This is why we are planning months and no the in advance so we can make arrangements...

Yeah. I was. Lol, I hand turned 32 five times a day for two weeks once. Then I pulled the bads

I don't recall having heard a sound like that before or if I did I never really paid attention to it. Do you think you could get a video?

I turn five times, 6, 9, 12, 3 and 6. Or when ever I get the chance if I forget.

I got within four inches of a Copperhead when I was laying in the grass when I was 10. I've been bitten by the typical rat snakes- they may not be poisonous, but, Great Sirius, do those bites hurt!!!

I will try to get one in the morning. It started a couple of days ago, but today is the first time I heard it. My sister heard it before me lol!

Yikes! Where do you have rattlesnakes? We don't have any, thank goodness.

Its voice could just be maturing at an odd pitch. Think how awkward young adolescent boys sound...

I bet so! My word, did you know he was there? A few months ago we were at a river and I had been standing on a rock in the middle of a separate pooled up area (not to mention​this rock was small) then after probably 5 to 10 minutes I got off and was trying to catch tadpoles with CC. The rock was 10 to 12 inches In front of my hand. When I looked up, I saw a very young Copperhead bobbing it head on the water, checking me out. I am the only one in the family who thinks it's cool to find snakes lol
