Ok, so I missed all the drama. I was wet vacing a flooding basement. Rain has finally stopped and basement is drying.
What I want to know is did any of CH's eggs hatch while he was gone hunting. I've read back through a lot of pages but I'm guessing that info was "culled" by the Mods doing a clean up.
No hatches since he left...still hunting

glad your keepin busy though!

I don't know if my nerves can take it! My mind is too active!
Doesn't matter. I'm a sinful person that has been alone too long. Not to mention that the tongue sticking straight out has never looked innocent to me. I swear I've spent the last four years trying to see how it doesn't embarrass other people.
Then again, I had just listened to the radio. There is a new app out for men. It helps them with their "tongue exercises". And they really got into the conversation.
agree

that musta been a good one.... I take it you dont listen to stern then?

Wow Sally, the slap seemed unnecessary.
oh it was Mike! and we had a small issue on the thread last night but mod got the thread cleaned up afterwards. CH just posted at the wrong time thats all. I sent him messages about it so he knows.

Good Morning every one.

Hatch update.
6 w/broody mama out side doing very good finally got a pic of all of them and the Christmas eve ones are getting pin feathers on the wings already.


3 hatched yesterday and last night
They are in the house

When I woke up I went to feed and another nothing going on egg has a pip.

I keep my nose pressed against the hatching too, but the feathers tickle my nose so it doesn't last as long.

Good morning all!! Way too many posts for me to catch up on. Bad record keeping on my part early is why 1 egg that did not hatch on 12/26, shouldn't really hatch until 1/1, but I'm not sure which of the 3 left over eggs it is. So, I'm not touching them until 1/1. I am NOT comfortable assisting ANYONE hatch at this point anyway. I'm sorry to any little chickies I kill by doing that. I figure if a chick is not strong enough to hatch itself, it isn't meant to hatch - the strongest survive?

The way I'm looking at it, the 12/26 eggs consisted of the VERY FIRST eggs these hens ever laid. EVERY one of them was fertilized (good rooster). The fact that 10 of the first 12 that I put in the incubator hatched - that is 10 more than I expected to successfully hatch. If these 3 that have been in lockdown since 12/24 don't hatch without help, I will be sad, but not disappointed. I'm already 10 better than I expected.

Again, thank you all for the AMAZING help! These 10 chickies would not have arrived without you! Let's hope a few more hatch on 1/1.

I will try to catch up on everyone's posts later. Now I actually have to head in to the office for a bit. First trip away from the babies....How will I handle it?

I hope everyone has a wonderful day.
