Truth
Oh yes, absolutely the truth. While snorkeling if your mask fogs off, you should take it off, spit in it and rub it around. I'm not sure why it works but it does!
Because ya can no longer see the fog through the green goobers!!!!

Making turkey for dinner; I burned my finger on the roasting pan, so now I have to drink scotch and soda.
(keep the finger on the cold glass to stop the pain. Well, that's my excuse)

Do ya need help with that ???

I have new babies too. Here is a picture of the 5 survivors. the last one to hatch died 2 days after hatch. Usually I have eggs hatching days 20 and 21. This time I ran the temp, 1/2 a degree lower and the humidity higher. They started hatching day 22 and finished day 25. I think I'll go back to slightly higher temps next time. These are Breda fowl from eBay eggs

Put egg whites on your burn. It will heal it.

Here's what your girls look like today FirewifeJess:

Wow, what an awesome new flock you have, they seem so happy!! Thanks for the pictures, I miss them but needed room for growing babies! I love the range of colors you have in your birds, they're so pretty all together!

Bummer..don't think I can go to the Vancouver show now.

I totally forgot the last batch of babies are hatching out so I won't be able to stay at Portland over night. Got to watch the babies.
The dula is on standby duty.
Can anyone help me bring a goose egg back to the greater Seattle area?

Pips & Peeps has an egg for me at her booth.

My last ditch effort in getting a goose introduced to Redmond.

I can get it for you if you haven't found someone yet.

thanks for the info; now how do I find a vet who works with chickens for this?  I would look into the vocal cord procedure but want to know more about it.     Anybody know a vet?  thanks.

There is a poultry vet in Bellevue at crossroads vet who is a poultry specialist named Bruce Singbeil. He is very nice to deal with. I have taken my chickens to him several times.

They are in love they wanna keep them all... My daughter ran to school today and told her teacher all about her hatch and she got extra credit and everything... She is still hoping the last six eggs will hatch...
