Some of the eggs I was thinking of incubating went into the cookies tonight.

Yes as a matter of fact I am.

TJ!!

I'm doin wonderful- you?
Really?

You have no idea what it took for me to walk out with only that much! As I stood in line, I tossed a new horse into my open purse. Spare pants, wipes and diapers were showing along with a sippy cup. I think I looked pretty funny as it was. I almost brought Duckling in with me.

Besides, living on her sun porch makes an easy commute to the Coffee Shop!

I assume you have little chickens and ducks on that porch...

She actually has three new ducks in there! A Pekin mix as well as two Mallards. All drakes. Very friendly. Someone dropped them off a little over a week ago. I said I was going to eat them, and she decided to keep them for herself.

Quote: Oh, man, that happens to me sometimes. I went on a total Cirque du Soleil video binge the other night, stayed up so late I was almost late for work...

Quote: They were fine last winter in a pretty open tractor, huddled in a pile. I'm mostly worried about the ones severely molting at this point. Not sure I'll ever be able to break their habit, I may just put up a windbreak for them for the winter.

Quote: I don't think that's what they mean when they say "Set all the eggs!"

I'm beat, just started yawning a lot - so I'm heading to bed. See y'all later!

I'll be watching for them. I'm assuming no more trouble with the cougar.

No. The dog is doing a great job. Chases things away every night. She does disturb my sleep, but not as much as having to run outside to the sound of thrashing birds.

I'd like a cookie.....
What kind?

Well it's a mix. It was supposed to be chocolate chip but I didn't have any brown sugar so its a sugar cookie with chocolate chips.

Good on the dog but I was afraid the sleep suffered a little

Hi everyone. I have some questions. I haven't incubated for some time now because of unsuccessful hatching but couldn't stay away from it and decided to give it a try again. The problem is that I had a hard time keeping the temperature steady. Now they are hatching and look kind of weak One have its gut a little out. What can I do? Or what can I expect? The temperature were on average 98 to 101.
