Help with hatching quail eggs
Comments (16)I tried hatching out quail eggs from an incubator several times mostly unsuccessfully. I did hear that humidity is important. Also I heard you should NOT touch the eggs with your hands or fingers. I had numerous chicks that couldn't make it out of the egg, and also numerous times I tried to help them out of the egg, and they were never healthy. I also had quit a number that hatched, but had deformed legs and couldn't walk right. It was very heartbreaking. I did have 2 occassions where the hen actually did hatch out a couple babies (out of many eggs) and they are the cutest things on earth. I call them bumblebees! Even the other quail in the pen would sit on them to keep them warm. I really enjoyed them. I don't have them anymore and do miss them....See MoreRotten Quail Eggs = Bumper Paw Paw Crop.
Comments (2)Dennis- When I was down in Madison (WI) I noticed the trees down there seemed to have set a good crop. How many trees do you have?...See MoreGourmet shops or online, and a Hungarian recipe - help!
Comments (8)Lol, Sammy! Well, cassoulet only became a tradition in our family because Mom cooked it one Xmas for Dad at Seneca Army Depot, from Julia Child's recipe... and it's just that good! They had been given the traditional clay pot as a wedding gift and she was alone for many hours that Xmas because Dad had to work, so she had time to cook it. Later, when I was able to go to France, I happened to love the area where the recipe originated! I had cassoulet days in a row... not that anyone could really top Mom's ;] She loved a picture I have of one spot with a big orange cat and the menu scrawled on the window [we're cats in the restaurant types]. The Hungarian connection is 'cos Dad got an opportunity to start a manufacturing plant there because of his old Hanes Knitwear connection [then Sara Lee]. They would make T-shirts for SL among others. Mom and I urged him to do it because his little brother had lived in Costa Rica for Motorola and surely Dad was as gutsy ;) It would be temporary [and the $ was astounding frankly]. He flew back every 3 weeks and Mom kind of liked that for a change of pace, lol. Then I graduated college and got to go live with him! Special times :) Thus, quail egg soup... Although we did hang out at the Vazi street Dunkin Donuts a lot! Oh and wild boar. A great friend named Istvan roasted one for a party - yum! - and he's who I named my dog after. Well, the order is in to ship and I couldn't afford the eggs too for Xmas Eve, but I'm excited! I swear, confit or not, cassoulet is that craveable....See Morefrustrations with common perceptions of wildlife
Comments (44)Actually, Dswan, I kill wildlife fairly often. Only in the appropriate season and only what I eat...and I don't feel bad at all about it. But I can sympathize about the snake...or any other critter that gets killed for no good reason at all. I've sadly run into enough boneheads over the years (and many aren't hillbillys...not sure if we technically can legally call them "hillbillys" in Canada...it may be like "champagne" is only rightfully applied to certain wines produced in the appropriate districts in France..perhaps we can call them "sub-alpine oriented peoples" ) who seem to feel that the only appropriate response to any critter on their property is extermination. I have a skunk that lives under my front verandah...not so much lives but loiters. In the several years that it's been resident, I've smelled it only once, and my olfactory abilities are finely honed. I've enjoyed watching the old girl raise litter after litter of handsome young skunks. A visiting relative was shocked by my entire family's nonchalance over the skunks. I told him that we learned to accept them and their odd habits, in much the same way my family came to accept him. Still, on his own little slice of rural bliss, he routinely dispatches any and all skunks, coons, and squirrels as they are "vermin". I find this appalling. What's worse is that he is an extremely civilized, well read and thoughtful individual...and unless Manchester, UK qualifies as part of Appalachia, I'm doubting his hillbilliness. Every day I hear complaints about Canada geese, cormorants, and sundry other birds and mammals. More and more, these complaints are coming from retirees and yuppies, refugees from the urban sprawl of Toronto or Ottawa. I hear comments about control and culling, and how the environment is "out of whack" Personally I'd like to see the exposion of these minivan driving Homo sapiens brought under some sort of control..they've taken to building their large bulky homes in every corner of our once proudly rural township...they clutter our roads and insist on trying to recreate the exact situations they left behind...if anyone has any suggestions I'm open....See MoreUser
