5th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2014 Hatch-A-Long

Last year during the Easter Hatch-A-Long I won Sally Sunshines Blue/Gold Brahma hatching eggs, and you would think I had won the lottery. For a week I kept telling everyone that I won a contest on BYC, and they'd get excited and say "what did you win"? I'd tell them and they would smirk and roll their eyes. I'd go into defensive mode with "you don't understand, these aren't just any eggs...they are blue/gold brahma eggs AND they are from Sally Sunshine!!!!" Still the smirk and eye rolls

Phooey on them, if I do win the lottery, I just might have to keep it to myself!

Sally and friends did a great job on that hatch-a-long

It would serve them right. Family could at least pretend to get it. Goodness knows I couldn't care less about football but I still listen to what play won the game. I don't know what they are talking about but I smile and play along.

LOL You are exactly right people don't get it. The same thing happened to me when I won duck eggs in a contest last year, I told everyone I one a contest, everyone just thought I was nuts.

It really was a lot of fun, and Sally is awesome! I expect in the next week or so this ones gonna get pretty lively too, lol! It's already headed there, and Ron is doing such a great job of staying on top of all of the add ons and questions. It makes my head spin!!

Thanks!

I will try to keep up with it all....It is a Blast so far.

And My 5 Olive Egges laid 4 eggs yesterday! I am going to do a fertility check and start collecting eggs on Friday.

I got an ear full from my sister about how evil chickens are. Apparently she was traumatizes as a little girl by a hen(probably broody) that pecked her while she was collecting the eggs.

I grew up with them and do not have those memories....

Darn. I had a great idea for a contest: Most Surprising Hatch. You know, for the 'how the heck did THAT get in there' moments.
