Hey good morning I do not butcher anymore either.
Do not want to.
I am finished with my coffee, do need a shower.

I was 15 minutes late but still had time to do all the exercises. The PT is definitely helping my shoulder.

Took my shower sure felt great,
Plugged the incubator in letting it get set then put 10 eggs in.
Still have a great fire burning for awhile.
Going to start a laundry while I can.

I just did the same thing and put 10 eggs from my best pullet in the incubator. The NH cockerels have been servicing her so the eggs should be fertile.

My incubator is a Janoel24 so smoked plastic.
Had it for like 7 years have two one is for 12 less room to hatch.
So like to use the bigger one, The smaller one is clear

Are your chickens molting? I'm in Seattle and only 1 of my 5 adult girls is molting. In past years they are all molting by now. Wondering if they are just late this year. Or is it possible they won't molt at all? They are 2.5 to 4.5 years old.

I think it's possible they won't molt at all. My older chickens don't molt much. We have a lot of feathers to clean up in the coop this time of year, but we don't see any featherless chickens. Ralphie, our young rooster has lost some of his tail feathers, but this would be the year for it. He is just a year old.
