    Starting over again

    Well I finished with 15 little chicks I still have 5 or 6 eggs that go into lockdown tomorrow I hope this batch goes as well as the last. The only thing that worries me is that I didn't get to turn them for a few days due to the others being in lockdown. But I am keeping my fingers crossed.
