I don't usually candle when the eggs are under a broody (as long as I know the group they are from have been getting the "job done")...

Speaking of broody hens. I am actually hoping one of mine goes broody this spring so I can hatch a few chicks. Now that I want one to go broody none of them will. But here's to hoping!

Well today was the big day that my white silkie hen has been waiting for. See she normally lays 4-6 eggs then goes broody for a month or more. Well today I put her to work earning her keep. I put her in the barn and gave her 6 RIR B eggs. At first she was not very proud of me for taking her away from her flock (RIR B). She was just throwin a big ole fit. But then after a couple minutes she settled right down on them eggs and I am confident she will do fine. So here's hopin fer my first RIR B hatch.

YIPPEE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Best of luck to ya CR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just spent 90 minutes scrubbing the slate tiles in my entryway...


... too bad "less dirty" is not synonymous with "clean".

THAT sounds like something StumpFarmer would say !

Now, if a GOOSE did it, I'd run!
