Brian SmallIt's easy to lose track of which chicks hatched when. So it's a good habit to photo them at various stages... Even if there's not time to post the photos right away, going back over the weeks with a photo album application like Shotwell makes it possible to figure out which set of chicks came out of their shells on which day...
These chicks all went to other homes but they came out of their shells and the incubator from May 7th to May 9th.. I'm wondering if the hatch-rate is bad because I take the early chicks out too soon and the temperature and humidity changes make it harder for the other chicks to complete their growth and break their shells. A neighbor with a lot of chickens and experience said he leaves the chicks in the incubator for 3 days.. And he has a lot of chicks running around. In two weeks a few of his Shamo 軍鶏 eggs should hatch along with a few Turkey eggs that I put in a week earlier.. The 7 day difference is convenient, just remember you started the Turkey eggs on a Wedesday and Thursday then start the chicken eggs the next Wednesday night...
Going back over the pixel fed posts reminded me I was calling the supermarket egg birds JiDokKo from hearsay. Later I found the producer's 生産者's bags myself to see that they are labelled JiDori.. People might use the word to refer to the way the birds are raised out in the open on dirt not in a green-house fan-blown animal factory that smells awful and seems unhealthy for everyone, avian and human involved...
