EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

[Pensmaster]

You're in rare form today!!!

:/  

I wasn't feeling well today - again with the "too tired" thing (likely lingering migraine effects). I had to come home early and lay down in bed for a few hours (I SHOULD have taken advantage of the light to get stuff done outside, but I could barely hold my head up).I was woken up around 2:30pm by the phone ringing. It was Ideal Poultry. They were like, we know you're on the waiting list for two female American Buff geese for 2018. We have two that we can ship out to you TODAY! I gathered my wits and declined (remember, I have 50 chicks coming in the next 3 days). Gosh...

Wow. Hope you get to feeling better.

We need a pic! 





Sounds like a nice garden chicken hawk!



SO we can mail a check or use PayPal? But PM you either way for where to send?

   Hi Mel! How's the hand?

Yes, sorry I have been doing chores.

You've known from the start that a 2nd surgery was a possibility. Obviously, the 1st one was a botched failure.

Something tells me that Bill will willingly trade a night on the town for a positive step toward your recovery. Celebrate the week after.

Tapped some myself yesterday. I'll be happy with just a couple gallons of the yummy liquid gold.
Hope the weather holds out for us
:-D

Hope you get enough to make some! Our taps have dramatically slowed their flow. We didn't even collect anything today.

Lots of hatches, Chaos lost a cat, Mike and I are on kid watch, Ken is taking benadryl, ABI is missing a Duckling, Pensmaster is practicing his swimming in preparation, Dan is hatching lots, NaJoBeLe went to the dentist, we discussed a get well gift for Sally....Not lots.

Thanks for the update! And good luck with the kids!

@chaos18- I'm so sorry for your loss

Abi-I hope your duckling shows up :/

Everyone else, good luck on your ventures!

We're any decisions made on something for Sally?
