New incubator and handturning eggs

Well...I have a new incubator in the making. I got an incubator at NAU surplus store it is the size of a 12 cu ft fridge. We are making turning racks for the eggs. It is going to hold over 500 is what we are thinking.......that is a lot of eggs. I can't wait until this is done.

Hand turning eggs...

Well I have been working on hand turning goose eggs for over a month. The first batch I hatched out 7 out of 9. The Second batch I hatched out 7 out of 10. The third batch is hatching out right now. I know that I already have 5 babies in there as of about 30 minutes ago. Geese are so big when they hatch, but I am sure that is because the eggs are huge!!!

I will update the egg adventure more later....

Wind, wind and More wind

Well spring is here and with it we get wind....all of my outside animals are ok so far,but the wind is getting really bad today. We are under a wind advisory....YUCK
