I just went to check on the mommas.  I heard peeps!  PEEPS!  The eggs aren't due to hatch till Monday, maybe Tuesday but I heard peeps and saw at remains of at least one shell.  Baby chicks!  I'm so excited.  jumpy.gif

Congratulations! Mine are pipping today. Five tiny beaks poking through the shells... pop.gif

If I come across as sharp, I am not meaning to be sharp - just informative and to the point. I don't tolerate fools too gladly.

Thank you, CVA.  I just went to close the hen house and heard another peep from the other nest.  There's at least one other baby in there.  This is so cool.  jumpy.gif
