Thanks Tia! Yea, they are just peeking out from the hair. I don't like to mess with them too much. Mamma has always been a good mother, but you just never know!

NO way! Just blame it on me. Just tell him I tied you up! then again....he's male, don't do that....

But you COULD tell him that you GAVE it to me. You were tired of it and needed an upgrade and hated to
see it sitting there....

I can see his face now when he walks into our spare room where two are already sitting......

(psssst the money you get from it would be a good down payment on your new one!)

I know, Im dreaming, But seriously, if you get arid of it I want first dibs!

If I upgrade, you'll be the first to know. But I am not responsible if you sleep with the chickies that night.

Ugh, where does the time go? It's WAY past bedtime, I have to round up my non-feathered kids and get them to bed. I can't believe I let them stay up this late.
Good night gals!

I came home to one light Brahma hatched 3 days early and no other pips or peeps! he is making quite the fuss abou being alone.

Good morning all... I missed a rousing round of conversation last night, I see! I had a customer come by last night for five six-week old Delawares, but wound up giving them the $5 tour and answering about an hour's worth of questions. They were SO nice...

But I was drained after and just vegged.

So, update this morning... Deb first... bad news is that #4 hatched, but did not survive the night.

She looked like a blue!! I'll take a photo, but very silvery instead of black. I'm very bummed. I think she lost too much blood ~ her abdomen just wasn't quite all the way closed. The good news? The first three are up and at 'em, fluffy, and will come out today. The better news? #5 is pipped... Aimee, this is 2 days past their due date, so DO NOT GIVE UP ON THEM.

I also woke up to 8 Orpington chicks, one more is pipped... pretty good for me with shipped eggs... I've always had good luck with Christina's eggs (she's in WA).

This will be a nice addition/major improvement to the stock I already have. I'm very excited for next season!
