 I might.  Ya'll aren't really newbies now, and your experience is your best teacher.  :D  Of course, if you or anyone ever needs me and I'm not around, just PM me, and I'll pop in. 

 

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????

I am on day 21 for my silkies and day 20 for 28 barnyard beauties so I will be here for a few more days too ;)

ETA Overnight I had my White silkie, a polish and a barnyard beauty from a huge blue egg hatch...I had to assist the blue egg, he had been pipped for 1 1/2 days and the hole was BIG. I could see he was very shrink wrapped. I broke shell of to make a bigger hole and qtipped warm water all inside edges and wrapped a warm paper towel. There was so many vessels low in the shell I was going to re look today. Little bugger got himself out! Glad cause I was not looking forward to that stress, lol!
