Copied off FB I didn't write this lol..But in honour of the year of the rooster here you go:

SETTING EGGS BY THE MOON'S SIGN
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　
According to page 245 of the 2017 Old Farmer's Almanac, "Special Anniversary Issue", Chicks hatched this year under the waxing moon, in the fruitful signs of Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, are healther and mature faster...So my hubby and I sat down today w/the almanac & and calendar and figured out for all of our chicken lovers & hatcher out there, the days of each month that you will want to put your eggs in the incubator to insure you get the very best babies possible for this year...Good luck hatching all your special babies. :)

Very cool, thanks for posting.
I hope everybody understands you don't have set eggs on every one of those dates.

Lol maybe I should edit it and leave only 2 or 3 dates!?

Somebody needs to start hatching though...I need to live vicariously through you....

This sounds like a great experiment! But, we need 'control' hatchings as well. I'm assuming the UNfavourable times to hatch would be when the moon is waning and in an unfavourable constellation? I have no idea how that works. How do I find out what the dates are? I will set eggs to hatch at both times, and see which hatches are better, which chicks healthier. But, one persons experience does not make a scientific ANYTHING (by the way, microwaved water grows plants just fine, despite what a middle schooler posted to a friend of a friend lol) SOOOO, it can't just be me, other people have to take part as well :D
