Yes it is HOT again. I just topped off everyones waterers with some ice and fresh water and I told them..."Don't worry girls. Tomorrow is going to be in the 80's. You're going to love it."

I think they were happy to hear the weather report! (I know I'm looking forward to it.)

It is exciting!

The first thing I like seeing are the veins.
Then the pip in the shell
and of course the zipping chick getting out of the shell

I have Quail rails but my incubators are full right now.

Bye!

Question- if you have a LOT of run space can you have a smaller coop? Or not really?

If they're not kept in all the time you can fudge the 4sq per chicken, as long as they have room to roost. That's my opinion anyway

I can take those dark brown eggs that will give you some room

Thanks! Love seeing the whales too. It's such a beautiful place. A woman I grew up with here in Paradise married one of the boys who's family owns the Purity grocery. I think that's the name of it. And our DIL's parents just bought a house there. We would love to have a place there someday too. Hahaha, dreamin'!
