Is this bad??
Congrats on the photo caption contest!
May the dog never eat the electric cord to the computer during a hatch a long again! Guess it is tons better than eating the incubator cord though.
Oh My! LeisureChix, that baby is sooo adorable!
Of my hatch, I ended up with 3 chicks. There were 5 eggs at lockdown, one was a quitter around day 15, one was breech and never pipped. Not my best hatch, but that's ok. Looking forward to the Easter Hatch!
Congrats to the good hatches...
Yesterday the newest member of our family (puppy) decided to taste the electrical cord going to the computer I normally use. Sigh. It's gonna take a week for the new power cord to arrive. Sure do hope puppy got a jolt of strong juice so he never tries that again!
Pips??? We have pips all...
my 7 year old sure loves the 'flingers'. Sadly, he got two the other day and I will probably hand him another one today, which brings me down to 5. My dear husband offered some hens to a good friend, when I had all ready promised my extra hens to someone else. Perhaps I should have put more...
wasn't this day 10? Guess I should candle and weigh. oh, wait. yesterday was day 10. Oops. Guess I should go candle and weigh and toss. Good thing I'm doing a small hatch! Suppose in my defense I should say, was sick on Thursday, then went to town yesterday where I helped clean my parents...
The little red hen got one vote... and it wasn't me, so I'm stoked! Hope I didn't sound whiney, that wasn't my goal... but that was this morning and I can't recall what my goal was way back then.
oooohhh, Teaser pictures! Sweet!
LOL SCG, you are just as celebrity illiterate as I am... well, I'm worse. So that's who lady gaga is! snicker. Looks like my poor little red hen has no votes at all. Maybe I should advertise the contest in the homeschool forum! (I can say that, my kids are homeschooled...)
Oh boy! Just candled... was too lazy yesterday, Well ok, I forgot it was day 5. Nobody is doing a countdown! Saw veins and thicker yolks... maybe one is doing nothing but I'll keep it in their till day 10.
x2
Have great ideas on my chicken celebrity look alike pictures... hee hee. Just need to figure out how to take a webpage picture to post with my picture. and relearn how to do pictures...
Oh! There is a sign up?? Hee hee, guess I missed that part, which is good cuz I'm not planning to set a bunch, just whatever I got from yesterday and today. I'm up to 8. I'll go overboard on the next hatch.
Guess I'll sign up the next time I'm on the computer.
So disappointed my little easter eggers from the NYD hatch aren't laying yet.
but my nice splash orpingting roo who is almost 19 weeks old was caught whispering sweet nothings in his half sisters ear this morning! (assuming half sister - shipped eggs) Will hopefully get his babies...
More hatchers!! how many are we now? Hmmm, hope the hens start laying more eggs, and where is Charles hiding her eggs this time? (brat!) Tuesday is coming up fast!
It is a week to set date, right? My incubator looks so lonely. Wonder if I could incubate some spring seeds too. Get the tomatoes started with the chickies. lol, would make a fun experiment.
