54 eggs in the incubator! We ended up with a lot of bonus eggs

Colours
24 silver
18 mixed colour
12 pansy

There is one massive egg that all most doesn't fit in the turner! All of the silver eggs are quite big.

there was one egg that I felt dent in when I was holding it but when I checked where it had dented I couldn't find anything

I want to make little information cards about assistance dogs to hand out to people, maybe even to a bigger leaflet too.

what information would you want to know?

Not sure, but maybe mention about why it's important not to distract/pet service dogs or dogs in training without permission
Too many people act like entitled children, from what I've heard

What breeds are okay to have as assistance dogs? I feel like I heard that there were only specific breeds that are typically considered to be worth training or something like that

It looks like I might be going on holiday up-country and I feel very uneasy about leaving my girls... What if Sprightly happens to fall egg bound while I'm gone?
It's not frequent anymore but it's always a risk....

Definitely will add that!

Hmmm... I will definitely add that to the leaflet! Maybe a very short bit for the card.

So any breed (expect banned breeds) can be an assistance dogs* but most breeds don't have the correct temperament for assistance dog work, which means they have a very high wash out rate compared to the commonly used breeds**

*might be what I put on the card
**is too much for the card I think, might be good for the leaflet in even more detail

Banned breeds?

Banned breeds?

Pit Bull Terrier, Japanese Tosa, Dogo Argentino, Fila Brasileiro are banned in the uk (xl bullies too but they have slightly different laws). I think some other countries also have banned breeds

Ah, okay. So it's a location thing, not an organization thing

Yes, for both the uk and America there is no official organisation for assistance/service dogs they are just covered the the disability/equality laws, so unless its illegal to own the breed they can be a ad/sd
