Guys, I'm a big dummy.

I just realized the breeder had been talking about being able to sex JG as well as the SF at a week old. It was a lack of clarification on my part, and research. While I wish he had been more clear about it, I should have double checked. I feel like a jerk now. Gahhhhhhh!
Live and learn, and make better choices next time. Now I know to clarify, not just assume.
When do I stop being such a noob at this?

Living and learning is one of the things that makes the hobby so fun

We all just do the best we can and hope it's enough.
 
I talked to the breeder again, and we're ok. I've learned to double check, and I think he'll be better at communicating. I hope.....
I feel better apologizing to him for my mistake, I've got no problem admitting when I'm wrong.
 
Yesterday my wife found a beautiful little robin's egg laying in the grass at the edge of her aunt's yard. I candled it and checked it for cracks and couldn't find any reason for it to have been discarded by the parent birds. We are 90% sure that it was not there earlier in the day. It must have fell from the nest by accident, luckily it landed in thick grass and is undamaged. I know it is probably silly to think that I can successfully raise a robin chick, I may have trouble with the whole regurgitating food thing. Has anyone ever tried to hatch or raise a wild songbird, any advice? I read online that they hatch in 12 to 14 days, I put it in the incubator that I am using as a hatcher at 100 degrees. The first thing that I thought when I saw that egg was, " Wouldn't it be cool to..." COUNSELING, That's what I need.

I guess I have to turn it myself, I wish I had quail racks for one of my turners.
