How crazy is that ???

A rather dapper gentleman walks into a bar and orders a 12-year-old Scotch. The bartender sneers and gives him a shot of 6-year-old. The man takes a sip and complains that it's only a six-year and he wants what he ordered. The bartender pours another and the man takes a sip and says, “This is a very good 25-year-old Scotch but I would prefer 12-year-old.” After he gets his drink, a man at the end of the bar speaks up and asks him to come over. He hands him a glass and says, “Here, taste this.” The man takes a gulp and says, "Sir, this tastes like urine." The second man says, "Yeah, now tell me how old I am!"

No, they are not hatchery, neither are mine.
She is in California, an easy shipment and she is a professional, and packs the egg fresh and well padded, as I also do.

So Lahar, one of the 10 month old white silkies, is broody. Again. This is her second stint this year. She was broody in September, came off the nest, molted, laid a few eggs, then BAM!
