Have ever wondered how to tell if an egg is good or not? Here’s one example of an egg that was incubating, started developing, and quit early on. They call this the “red ring of death” because if you see this, the embryo has stopped developing.

I have never done an unboxing video (probably should start) but my friend Mariah at The Snitchstead sent me a box of awesome goodies. If you haven’t checked out Sunny Scrunchie Co., you’re totally messing up. Her headbands are suuuuper awesome. I don’t have enough hair to use an actual scrunchy but I’m sure these are awesome too. And look at that pen and keychain! If I wore pants I could clip my keys onto them! I can clip them onto my bag though, which is very handy.

The sugar scrub smells incredible. The ghost candle is very uplifting, which we all need now and again. The soaps actually help my kids not destroy our bathroom, which they have done about fifteen times with liquid handsoap.

If you have the opportunity to get one of these boxes, definitely do it! I love the one I bought so so much.

Yall, I’m kinda thinking about pushing to get to 5K followers by doing a giveaway. What would you like to see given? Incubator plus DNA tests is what I was thinking. I’m open to suggestions though!

Can we talk about the heavy responsibility that comes with DNA testing for other people’s birds?

A lot of folks are getting DNA testing equipment and I am all about it. Yall go get that done!! But also, if you’re testing for other folks, you have to realize the great responsibility that comes with this. If you mis-ID a chick, it very well could get hard culled. In addition, mis-IDs make folks lose faith in all of us.

Whenever you’re talking to someone about getting them to DNA test your birds, you should ask what controls they run! If they are not running a minimum of one positive and one negative (it must include the extraction reagents, minimally), you probably want to walk away. I actually think a ton of the ladies doing DNA testing are truly amazing. We can talk about controls. We are all thinking about how to prevent cross-contamination. We all want to properly ID your birds. It’s a heavy burden/big responsibility and most DNA testers take this very, very seriously.

It’s something to consider when choosing a DNA tester too. There’s a boatload of us out here. I always say that you’ll probably have a good experience with whomever you choose. But I’ll also say that experience does matter. Knowing how to properly identify a contaminant and to know when something is off…it’s kind of a sixth sense that you get when you’ve been running PCR a while. You learn to trust your gut.

I want yall to know that I take running your samples super seriously. I will always always always rerun something that looks even remotely wonky. Hell, I’ll rerun samples even if I don’t like the looks of a gel. I have actually never had a result change upon a redo but I still redo them if something feels off. I really do care about proper ID of your birds’ s*x or genotype.

I hope you can appreciate that. I’m always here if you want to chat about DNA testing, even if you don’t use my service.

Have yall seen Vanessa’s gender reveal videos? They are heeeeelarious.

Have yall seen Vanessa’s gender reveal videos? They are heeeeelarious.

The next episode, is the FIRST gender reveal of this season, and if I’m being honest, it’s my favorite yet! 💜🤷🏻‍♀️

Better than Counselor Turner (S2)…

BETTER than Madam Turner (S3)…

It’s DETECTIVE TURNER! I’m on the case to find out who has been attempting to crow in the brooder. 🧐

There are three suspects, all look very similar, making a good identification hard. 🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛🐦‍⬛

Luckily, FLARPD 😆 works closely with Black Cat Genetic Testing to identify DNA and find the culprit! 🧬

Justice will prevail! ⚖️

🎥🎞️The episode drops tomorrow night! Don’t miss it! Please share this to alert the masses!
