    Setting eggs the week of May 7th (Here's to wishing the best this time)!!!!!!!!!

    Well, I had to cull one of my two babies...her little feet were so horribly curled, and her legs so bad that I could not see any quality of life for her at all. Her sister Diva has been lonely and despondent, so I went and bought a friend for her. Here is my odd couple... Diva the Modern Game...

    WOOT!!! Go little babies, go!! We will need pics when they're hatched, of course! :D They are Modern Game Bantams from shipped eggs. The breeder has birchen and silvers...I have a feeling both of mine are going to be silver.

    YAY!! Good luck!! Sooo fun! My other egg hatched..I got paranoid and worried about it because the baby had not moved at all in about four hours, even with a decent hole in the egg...I went ahead against my brain saying "do not help!" and helped the little thing zip. It is now hatched and...

    That looks totally normal for a hatching baby. They first make a pip, then a hole, then zip it around. Hatching is hard work and takes time. Being a baby chikkin is a test of stamina and will from the beginning it seems LOL! Keep your chin up! Maybe they are just procrastinators! Sending...

    Baby is adorable...scared the little thing nearly to death when I took that picture...it startled and screeched O.O Poor thing. It does not like paparazzi. I think it's name is going to be Diva...the little drama queen (So it absolutely CANNOT be a little boy..that'd be a dumb name for a boy :P)

    Little Modern Game Bantam, I am guessing it will be silver duckwing since the breeder has birchen and silvers. I will get a pic in a moment :D And here it is! My new baby :D
