6th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2015 Hatch-A-Long

[houdiniduck]

Welcome!

I will add you to the member list.

You are also entered into the hatch rate contests.

Thank you! It is her first clutch, so I am interested to see what her hatch rate is myself! It's my first time hatching or brooding, taking care of a broody? Dunno what to call it, but I am dying of nervous!

Okay people remember, at midnight on 1/1/15 we have to all be in front of our incubators or broodies and at the stroke of midnight we have to scream "HAPPY NEW YEAR" as long as we can. That way we can scare the chicks right out of their eggs!

Don't worry, they'll love you for it.

Yeah, I know it's a scary name for a turkey but hey, I once had an iguana named King Arthor Zachariah Mathias Montomery Van Pelt of the Long Island Van Pelts, of course. lol

Oh wait, you meant the lit cigarette part.

Ok folks...finally got all of my eggs in the bator. Birchen sea turtles, sizzle x duck billed platypus (f2), heritage show quality american alligator, and my project quail x bald eagle olive eggers.

You guys kill me.

I LOVE those! So cute!

Yep. For the next 3 weeks we get to watch eggs just sitting there looking like eggs, no matter how much we beg and cajole them to do SOMEthing.
