So sorry. Hoping it was just a horrible scare and it's good from here on lots of

and for you both (sorry Amber, it's what I do)

and for you and your critters Bamadude!!! And any other BYC friends in the way of the rediculous weather!!!

why you apoklogizing to me?

ARG!

health stuff stresses me out.... I hope it works out OK


Wow! I am so glad your hatch was so good!

Of the two quail... one looked close enough to "done" that I eased it a bit out of the shell this morning before church.. and when I just now came back and checked on him, he was out all of the way all looks really good! PHEW! So, I promised , and I have 4! ABOUT TIME! (delivering what I have promised

) quail #5 STILL doesn't look quite ready to hatch, but is also still alive... so not yet sure on him, one way or the other... but I have 4, so he can die if he wants to (sing with me now "It's his party and he can die if he wants to, die if he wants to...")

As to the Leghorns

They are hatching, and hatching properly.... except remember the one early hatcher was a single comb white leghorn... he does not look creamy enough to be a buff or a pyle..... just a plain white leghorn....

So I look in after church, and there are maybe 6 in there now... One might be an Echequer which is kinda cool.... But, right off hand I only say TWO with rose combs, one brown and the other a white (remember, I ordered 1 dozen rose comb dark browns, and one dozen rose comb white) but.... the white rose comb chick has a dent across its comb.. super odd.. AND A WRY NECK!

Isn't that a nutritional problem from the breeder? SHEESH! My nutrition is clearly not the best, but none of my chicks have hatched out with a wry neck!!

I think I remember that if I feed the blasted chick vitamins it might turn out ok.... anyway... gonna search that now

Those are the CUTEST babies ever! And, they all look healthy, and none have wry neck

Every day for the last 2 weeks or so, still snow..... though today we alternated between snow, and hail, and a tiny bit of rain... rotating through all three, over and over and over again... crazy stupid weather

WOW! super silly bear!

that sounds super frustrating about your leghorns you got

I never heard of isabels before you all were talking about them, pretty birds.

@Amberjem I think @chickisoup was apologizing to you as the OP since she brought up personal beliefs... some people get offended if others pray for them... personally, I feel that anything from the heart that is meant in a positive way needs no apology...

Isabels x isbars would be a good looking SBEL

Get back in that recliner.
I sold my homebrew kit. I found some dextrose and citra hops. I was thinking of mailing it to you. Then I saw the price tag. The dextrose was $3 a kilo. It would cost more for shipping.
We have been dipping strawberries in it
