    First egg from this flock.

    I came home to an egg from our ladies along with a very loud greeting from one of our Roos. He was standing over the egg, so maybe to get my attention? They just turned nine weeks old too.

    Wiggling eggs?

    Friday will be 14 days. I'll likely put them into lockdown then. Got a few more wigglers today. I fully expect to hear chirping one of these mornings. :lau

    Yeah, we ended up ordering online. We have just a few days before "Lockdown". I swaer, I see the eggs wiggling once in a while. I don't know if that's just me or if they are actually moving a tiny bit.

    Eggs arrive Friday! So eggcited!

    Our incubator and the temporary brooder box have arrived (I Know it's way too small, but we're only looking to have just a few birds so I think this will work for now. We'll have a rabbit hutch as the pen that is arriving at some point soon too.

    Thank you all! Our incubator and brooder box (with heat source) should be arriving any day now. Along with the final cage (using a rabbit hutch again, just like last time) I have hatched Coturnix way back when, but any tips and pointers would help bring back some forgotten knowledge. Also...

    Hello all! Pete here. I used to be very active in this forum years ago. I went through a divorce and that meant that I handed over my farm. I'm back now with a new (OK six years at point) Spouse. We discussed raising chickens and they are illegal within our city limits. However Quail are...

    Anyone with knee injuries? Meniscus tears? Cortisone?

    That's good! Not retorn is the best! Arthritis is no fun, I'm riddled with it! I'm hoping since I moved from Astoria, OR to Bellingham, WA that I can see one of the surgeons here and get a second opinion on what to do about mine.....

    I had a Partial Menisectomy a little over a year ago. I was at work when I tore it....... OUCH!!! In addition to tearing the Meniscus while moving lockers, I also tore my ACL's and PCL's in the same instance. I have Osteoarthritis and cortisone seems to help with my pain. I have some issues...

    Divorce.....Yikes!

    Thank you all. The happiness is obvious!! My family has noticed, my friends REALLY noticed. You won't hear me badmouth my ex, I'm just not that way. I do respect her and her feelings. Though, she doesn't share the same sentiment.....
