Thank you again...  I really appreciate everyone's help and wisdom.

 

I may not say it but my thoughts are with everyone and their hatches wishing them well!

Anyway:  Did you get any eggs that are round.  Like... not oblong but smaller and round.

My only news is I have 2 for 3 Sebbies with Veins.  Do you have yours from Lisa yet?  
 

 



Yup. Mine were all normal enough. some of them were fatter than others.

Celtic, glad you made it through your busy day. Did your wrong end pipper make it? Did you get eggs from Erin? Marty got a surprise extra egg today too. Maybe we can all set eggs together after all??


awesome! I love mine.  They are so cute.  (and fat and hungry all the time.)  Seriously.. ALL the time.

Ok.  I had two that were completely round while the others were oblong.  The round ones #1 I had to help and it's VERY small.  #2 is the one that zipped and died.  So I just wanted to warn you if you had smaller round ones.

So, I have some terrible, horrible sad sad news.

 

I sold my last four runner ducklings! Now all I get to keep is three pekins. I really wanted to have one or two from my first hatch, but honestly, I did intend to sell ducklings, so I have to sell ducklings!

 

Next hatch day should be April 11th. I'm setting aside my keepers this round. fl.gif

 

Had two BEI's candle clear. Had three blood rings.

 

Got 24 of 28 runners, 11 of 16 BEI's and 2 of 2 goose! fl.gif

 

Bator 2 is full. Going to have to wait a few more days for candling since I set on Thursday. fl.gif

Thanks for the advice! I'm a pretty serious assisted hatcher, so I will keep an eye on them. The fatter ones were still pointy enough that I could tell which end was which. They were awkward in the turner, but such is life.

 for a second there, I was afraid you were eating call ducks.....  Then I remembered the recipe earlier.  ep.gif

 

Why don't sheep shrink in the rain?

 

 

Why is there brail at drive up ATMs??

 

 

Why are their floatation devices instead of parachutes in my airplain seat???

 

 

If a tree falls in the woods and my husband doesn't hear it, am I still wrong????
