I have Nine Heritage RIRs hatched. The tenth one just started zipping.

These are the first six to hatch:

Congratulations, Ron! They are adorable, and beautiful. Even as a new born, they have such deep colored down; simply love it!! Not so easy to find quality HRIR., such as your babies...

Wow, this week of midterms has been kicking my butt and it took me quite a while to make my way through all the posts. Yesterday I tried to candle some of the eggs but couldn't quite tell what I was looking at, only my serama egg was clear so that got tossed. Today I looked up egg development online and saw what the size of the chicks in the egg and thought since I couldn't see anything yesterday I thought maybe something had happened and the eggs had all gone bad since I didn't really see much besides some blood vessels. I decided to try again and I saw movement! Since my flash light isn't the best I only candled some of the lighter eggs and I found embryos in 5 of 6 of the light ones! e I swear 14 days away has never felt so far. Mind you some of the reptile eggs I hatch out can take anywhere from 60 to 105 days! I guess because 2 weeks is not too far in the future I feel more impatient and it feels longer.

Very exciting! You should get some really pretty Chicks

I was expecting two boxes of eggs on Wednesday. On Tuesday night, I had a dream that I showed up at the post office. The worker came walking out with a box in one hand and in the other they were holding a brown paper grocery sack. They had the sack as far away as they could hold their arm and ropes of runny egg were dripping out of the bag. Wednesday morning I received two lovely boxes of well packed eggs!

You are going to love your new incubator <3

And thanks for all the anniversary wishes.

I have all my little plants in my sun window for now. I'm making a greenhouse cover for my garden, but I don't want to plant until I'm sure I can keep the chickens out. I have a1 1/2 foot raised garden bed, with a 5 foot plastic chicken fence around it. I don't know how they are getting in, unless they fly over, or jump on the coop, then jump over the fence. The funny thing is that after they get in, they can't seem to figure out how to get back out. I come home from work and check on them, and they are waiting for me to let them out of the garden.

This was part of my garden last year. I had my cucumbers growing up the back of the coop. I swear it wasn't this hard to keep them out last year!!

great idea. Woodsy. Love it
