Cute babies!

Happy Friday All

I hope everyone has a great weekend ahead! I get a mama and two baby goats tomorrow - I can’t wait

I wanted to show you all where we are at so far. I still have several slots (and WAAYY too many days left), if you want to invite anyone to our party. Thanks to all for playing

Since we're going into spring, how about Fern for the green/blue(?) egg (B1) and Tulip for the brown egg (B2) .

They are yours

Hi all

Hope everyone is having a great week!

I just wanted to let you know I haven’t forgotten about you - I do not like candling, so I usually drag it out to day 10.

In other news, I just found out there is a backyard herd group just like this one that I will definitely be visiting on behalf of my new additions. Community is so awesome

Yes! Backyard Herds is a sister site to BYC! Nifty runs that one too. You may even see some familiar names and people over there.

Hope your goats are doing well!

I understand about the candling. Some candle daily, but I usually only candle a few times when I incubate chicken eggs. For Quail eggs, I've never had any luck candling those, I can't see a thing, so I just set them and wait to see what happens...it's a surprise every time

I am just beside myself - there is even a gardening site? My head is going to explode

I’m hoping the candling will go well - there are many I probably won’t be able to see into, but I I’m a rip-the-bandaid-off kinda girl, so I like to see what I’m working with, especially since I’m not positive everyone has been covered.

My broody was due today- only three, so far (seven left).

WOW day 10! and don't like candling?????? LOL I am the complete opposite!!!! haahaa. I can barely make it to day 3 before I candle! then I do my best to at least wait till every other day. I don't candle ALL of them every other day but normally pick out a few. but do all on day 3, 7, then try to hold off on all till day 14, then day 18. I just can't help it, it is like a drug and I can't hold off.

Go Fern/B1-17!
Go Tulip/B2-17!

I know - but with my bad luck on my hatches, I’ve noticed they seem to quit around day 10, so I always think that day 7 candling has something to do with it. You never know

Understandable
