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

[mlm Mike]

Sounds good!



No - feel like it though. Was doing a bunch of chicken chores. I got some pics to share.

Here's Khan (Puppy's son), all grown up. Snape was being a jerk today, and I warned him that I had a replacement ready to go. I think he understood.

And speaking of Puppy - look who she's corrupted - I found Buffy out with her the other day:

(Buffy was a little freaked out by being outside - she hasn't tried since. But I had a nice snuggle with Puppy this evening in a chair while watching her kids - she wanted hugs and cheek rubs. )

I've only had an apple all day, along with a lot of water, so I'd better go scrounge up something to eat.

(Edit to add: And Puppy shared the apple with me, so... I'm hungry)

OK, the naked necks are kind of freaking me out again. lol

And to use the measure of an old dead English king foot as a measurement is logical?

Yes

If it was 50, or 100 it could do some logic. But 36? Way not 53.5?

Why did they make a meter 39.37 inches?

Yes

Inches are a weird way of measuring, they were based off the width of a man's thumb... Which isn't always the same. The metre is one-ten millionth of the distance from the equator to the north pole---now that's logical.

They are so cute!!!!! I assume they all think they're goats?

That's nothing - how about an irritable Naked Neck broody - it's like opening the egg door and looking into the face of a dinosaur (complete with sound effects)!

Hi Kristin! sounds like a good day of work accomplished!

I did! More to do, always more to do, but glad this got done, as the 15 "resting" chickens were taking up all the space in my fridge...

They were wrong about the distance meaning it is totally random.
