She hasn't given me one today yet.  But that's not suprising since she's had a change of scenery, lol. 

Yep, very depressed about the Call eggs.  I have 8 due on the 14th, but at this point I feel like I'm just killing babies, and that breaks my heart.

Bakin....what are the dimensions on your greenhouse?  I'm trying to figure out how wide to go with the open ends....I think 2 panels side by side are 8'6".

This is the little duckling who I thought was blue magpie when it hatched, but was told it looked pastel. It does look similar to the pastel, but the more I look at it the more I think it's silver magpied. Anyone else think so? If he is, I need to decide if I want to keep him and get blue/black.silver magpie babies, or the black magpie drake I have who has much nicer markings. 

Behind the blue magpie here.                                                                 In front of the pastel.                                                                         P1070428.JPG  P1070434.JPG
