It is obvious that in 1984 style your critters did not want to go, obviously one of them sabotaged the truck. On the other hand so many folks working together to help you out, THAT was fantastic. I will miss your blog very much. <br /><br />PS. Can't you just make the truck into one big veggie planter ?

I am still a reluctant incubator cleaner. Ask Jim as he opened the "hatching closet" to find the last messy incubator "curing" for several weeks after the hatch.. Oops.. I forgot about it.. yeah right, he says.. <br /><br />Congrats on the chicks!! I try at every chance to sneak Buckeye eggs under anything that is sitting. We currently have 2 turkey hens sitting on Buckeye eggs as well as one Cornish hen on a pile of Buckeye eggs. I sure wish I could get the Buckeye hens to sit on their own eggs!!!wendy phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09436035183575767210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8322476066412373037.post-83618987932543148802010-06-01T07:05:32.941-07:002010-06-01T07:05:32.941-07:00Hello - I agree with you 100%!!
