    Hello! Visiting from BYC!

    Yep. It was bad enough when I started with chickens, then more chickens, then ducks, a turkey, quail, and I've got goose eggs in the incubator. I just got rabbit's a month ago, I'm trying really really hard not to look at all the cute goats and sheep.

    Goose incubating question

    Goose incubating question

    Hi all. I am on day 4 or 5 of incubating my goose eggs. Can't remember for sure, I'd have to look at my posts on byc to remember what day I set them and can't do that. :he Anyhow, they are shipped eggs with awful air cells and I don't have much hope for them, although I think I may see veining...
