No go on the chicks

Sadly C's Chick Hatching Dome was full of rotten eggs. He cracked them open expecting bits of feather and bone but found nothing but rotten egg. I was a bit relieved. I read in my chicken guide that eggs hatch too early or too late may result in defective chicks. The authors strongly recommended culling.

The moral dilemma has been averted but the TLC C gave in turning these eggs were for naught. I told C I would write a strong letter to McMurray Hatchery complaining why they would sell such a junky hatchery making kids cry.
