I am staring at pipping duck eggs..2 days early for these, my other 2 eggs didn't go. WW is Tuesday okay? these guys are going now so I didn't want to move them to the hatcher...

well I don't feel like I accomplished near enough this last week.....

I hate Stress and Drama, but have been submerged in it for the last 2 weeks.

I have had very little rest, and even less time to myself....even with hubby gone, there was no rest for the wicked (me) to be found.

Roosters getting out of the pen, Road Construction (during my normal sleeptime) Delayed Planes.......Roving greenhouses, and the list goes on and on.........
I just need a vacation to somewhere peaceful, and my fishing pole.....just alittle peace and SUNSHINE......

Oh boy , delayed planes, I remember that one. But a roving greenhouse? PT, you can't leave us hanging on that! As for the rest, I think you have earned that break.

Did you ever say Carmen? Did the ducklings just vanish? The P.O. can't explain?

Donna, I don't know if you use cartons for hatching or not, but with the ducks, don't... I have one pipped right now, too (day 25) and it's on the wrong end. I've lost a lot of ducks this year trying to do it in the cartons, and having the cartons wick all the moisture out and kill them. So lay them on their sides if you can.

IFF... did you grind the food small enough for them to eat? They're so tiny that the crumbles are too big for them, and if they don't eat right away they will waste away.

I'm so sorry.
