    If you don't feel like driving into town to get it, you can just sign the slip, leave it in your mailbox and call them around 7 on Wednesday that you want it out for redelivery. But it likely will be later then normal and possibly get dropped a few times.

    Any tips for incubating muscovies? I had 6 viable at lockdown. A few had internal pips yesterday. Was expecting to wake up to chicks. Nope. Made some holes just a bit ago. 2 alive and chewing. 3 internal pip DIS. And 1 DIS didn't even try.

    Not that Moony would know but what is a good price to ask for a backyard mutt chick 5-6 weeks, possibly sexed?
