Granny, how many eggs are you hatching? Going to have to keep a running ad on FB, or are you keeping all of these?

I've done it five times at least. :rant

I better check my emails then. I just assumed it was off. Don't use that email account for much anyway.

There are threads to get help. You don't want these emails to keep coming after we go home to BYC.


:hit I just got onion in my eye! Back in a bit! :hit

what has me worried is the difference between Lisa and Campings egg. Last I looked Lisas looked far away from hatching compared to Camps. And Lisas eggs are humongous. jumbos I guess.
Camping, If you put the eggs flat as soon as one hatches it will knock the others upside down. I am thinking like a hen, they are sort of imprisoned under her.

I had to unwatch then rewatch. It automatically subscribes you to email notifications before you change your settings so after you change it, you have to unwatch the thread and watch it again and then it will automatically choose no emails.

It happened to me too

I put an x at the lowest dip, so if one is rolled I can tell. I also clump them together, touching so that chicks can pop the cap off but not roll the others too much. That bumpy shelf liner helps, too.

Not too much. It can hold a bit of water, too. It's mesh, so doesn't affect airflow that much.

I'm not sure of the breakdown, maybe a quarter marans. I'm super excited about the egg color. :fl I have one roo, one pullet, and one I'm not sure about.
