Chiqita...thank you thank you thank you. You consistently bring wisdom humor and experience to this thread and this post just made me laugh out loud. Stay safe!

stay safe near roseville I hear your having or had a twister

I didn't see any but I was enjoying the thunder when my cell phone started making this awful sound! It was a duck and cover kind of warning about tornadoes in "my" area. Kind of vague and how did they know exactly where I was?? Hmmmmm?

I ran outside to see if I could see any to see if I really was in any danger, and nope not a single thing, But somehow "they" knew where I was.

My chickens were not enjoying the thunder as much as I was. They have been stressed out all day. Maybe I will put some B vitamins in their water tonight.

Quote: Me too! I love her inquisitive expression and pretty pattern; looks like she is wearing pajamas : ) Beautiful photo! My friend has a tiny D'anver rooster who lives with her LF chickens, and this little, cute thing terrorizes her Bresse roosters, and even goes after her turkey.. cutest sight! He has no idea how tiny, little he is, and seems like bigger the opposition, more courageous he is.. Well, my tiny Ko Shamo stags are the same : )

and as a p.s., i just lifted up the EcoGlow to see how the kids underneath are doing, and they're all standing and wiggling and looking happy, including the little black one that got chilled (well, there are three blacks, and i'm not sure which is which, but they all looked good).

hurrah, i can finally get myself to campus this morning! running late...

Wonderful that the little Marans is doing well; and you have so many chicks to love.. What kind of Marans have you hatched? I have one 6 yr. old BCM., who still lays eggs. She gifts me with an egg once week or so.

Two new baby Seramas

Awww! they are so cute & beautiful! Last year, I've had couple of bantam chicks, and when they hatched, was terribly worried handling them with the worry of causing hurt.

I won the d'uccle auction i was praying for! Now i just need to find an incubating service... I'm willing to pay! any takers?

Congratulations, Jessica!! I am happy for you and wish you a wonderful hatch! D'uccles are so pretty..

New here just started with 4 Delaware's in Antioch

Having lots of fun with them so far.

I'm in Antioch, too! There are things that I don't like about our city but I am very thankful that they allow us to have chickens!

Good luck Audio!


I have 2 more days then I stop the turner.


Is it the same principle for duck eggs? 3 days before?
Thanks!

And yes...it is 3 days before expected hatch for ducks too.

Maybe you could give me a few tips. Im really new at this. I'm thinking that Ill have to enclose a section of my yard rather than let them range.

Cool!


This is the big hatch season LOL. I will be going until October as long as people want Lemons. They need to help pay for the feed.
