@Ursuline Chick & @KikisGirls we had a great time. Actually haven't even made it home bc we decided to do the Witte before we left today. That is a great museum btw if anyone is ever in San Antonio. My entire fam enjoyed it. We are so exhausted tho. We went non stop. Day 1- zoo, day 2- riverwalk, day 3- sea world, day 4- sea world aquatica, day 5- Witte. Our apartment was nice but parking wasn't great bc there wasn't always convenient access to the apartment from the parking space which meant more walking. The Rivera Apartments which is a separate entity owns the building and does have permanent residents there and they don't want to share the parking garage. Apparently this is one of the only Stay Alfred locations where parking garage passes are NOT permitted and I didn't realize that before, but other than that it was a beautiful, fully furnished and well kept place to stay downtown and was very close to plenty of things to do (like minutes from riverwalk, witte, zoo etc..). Anyway that's my little vacay rundown. I'm not even going to attempt to catch up but will ready along until I figure things out.. and... I'm done with my novel! @Ursuline Chick where are you going for vacay??? And @Tesumph how are the chicks? Do we have any for sure roo babies yet? @KikisGirls what's in the bator?

The babies are wonderful. They’re growing like weeds but no for sure Roos yet. I still can’t touch or get anywhere near psycho chipmunk EE, but the white EE is actually warming up to me! She perches on the door frame with the others and I can pet her chest now.
The welsummer and two barred rocks have started flying out to perch on my arms recently. I’m seriously in love.

I will get some updated photos tomorrow if anyone’s interested. I had to slow down on the chicklet pictures, I must have taken 200 in the first week.

Oh geez. Do you think a tall multi-level cage would work? I thought they needed longer open areas, like guinea pigs.
Are they very dusty?

No comment.

I just got my first egg EVER from one of my hens!!! WOOT!!!

 

[dpenning]

Of course. I am going to forever have quail eggs in my bator once the quailies grow up!

I am also planning on trying to hatch some next summer outside with no incubator!

Do you have quail egg scissors? You will want some if you plan to eat any of the eggs. When your birds come online you will have more eggs than you know what to do with. I actually ha e two pairs and some plastic egg holders. I’ll send a pair of scissors and some egg crates if you want them. Then you can scrub the spots of your own eggs for your experiment!
