Cold hatching egg

Yea, Twin City is great. I've ordered from them a couple of times. This time I ordered my Marek's vaccine from Jeffers. I got three viles of Marek's(1000 doses each), 10 syringe/needle combos, and a nice soft sided zip top cooler for $73.35 shipping included. Shipping was $12.00.

Well, I guess turning up the oven temperature really does bake things a little faster. I just walked into my office to find a chirping baby chick looking up at me in the incubator and several more pipping. That really doesn't sound unusually other than they weren't due until Saturday night and this is Thursday. I'm just so thankful that when the temperature spiked a few days ago, it didn't fry them...especially since the only 4 eggs I have from Esther are in there. I noticed 2 of hers is pipping and one of her others is rocking  :)

I use to put my surplus eggs in the refrigerator for up to two weeks and take them to an auction till I found out people were buying them at commercial eggs prices and hatching most of them.  I now feed them back to the chickens instead.

Illinois no longer allows eggs for eating at the sale barn.All are sold as hatching eggs.They have the opposite problem.Surplus eggs [old] being sold as hatching eggs.I believe they can be sold as eating eggs if refrigerated but the sale barn does not want to supply a refrigerator or have issues with the state.
