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

[campingshaws]

Those two have hatched now. I had a snake wrangling to handle. I helped one, just finished the zip and let it do the rest. I know some don't, but I'm a meddler. I tried to wait til the good zipper was finished, but its zip started going brown as well. It came out on its own while I was shooting.

Glad they hatched. What kind of snake. Snakes are just coming out here.

Rat snake, most likely.

Rat snake, most likely.

The one here was a garter snake. It apparently got in the way of a car.

Obviously they don't just eat rats.

Swimming is my favorite kind of exercise. I keep threatening to save up to get one of those endless pools (with the current motor), but care and tending of a pool daunt me. Maybe one day.
.Those endless pools are as bad as treadmills; you work your posterior off and don't get anywhere.

And how is that different from laps? (And it has the advantage of no flip turns...)

Puppy was such a good girl today. She escaped her paddock like always, and since the recent rain had brought on the fire ants, she was systematically going around the yard decimating each ant hill and filling up on all the larvae, scratching each deep to the core.

Oh, and Whites - here's the branch I need to cut. The fence post next to it is only 5 ft tall.

You mean like it's a guinea... Ducks are not to be stomped, especially campin's.
