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

[BantyChooks]

Best of luck.

Thanks, they'll need it.... How a whole duckling is gonna fit between the air cell and the line I don't know. Some of them look full like day 26 eggs, and they're nearly a week away from hatch still.

Also, that egg isn't leaking. That's stuff still on it from when its neighbour went kablooie.

@rIrs roost I missed your post.... As a woman, I can say we'd prefer if you left our kneecaps alone.

Phew, finally its a bit quiet.

So I got over the cold yesterday.... but then I have been sick all over again today with a small headache as well.

I dont know why I have been sick so much lately, and getting headaches a lot. Last year was nothing like that.

Stupid meat ants. They got into my Quail pen and literally ate the poor female Quail ALIVE! We didn't get to her in time, and the poison killed her........the male Quail has a big head wound but didn't get covered in meat ants so I'm hoping he will make it. I didn't change the Quails food this morning because of me being sick, and even though it's not meat, it attracted the meat ants, who though Quail tastes nice.....

3 bird they have killed.

Sorry you're not feeling well. And sorry about the ants.
Are you in Australia? Yikes!

Thank god it's a holiday! Getting the garden work done today, bought baby cucumbers and peppers for the field yesterday as well as the weed screen. The goal is to get the plot leveled, covered, staked, and get things in the ground today.

Baby's test results still aren't in! Gettin' tired of waiting to see whether we're having a boy or a girl.

We've also bought our plane tickets, and our Texas trip is locked in for 23 June until 13 July. Got a feeder on standby in my Ebay cart so the in-laws don't need to go out and feed the birds as often. Holds 64 ounces (so about 2 kg) which is nice.

Husband's mom is planning a big shopping trip for baby furniture and supplies when we find out the gender. Generous budget too, so I can get basically anything I want. Going by IKEA at some point to get the crib, changing table, and other furniture necessities and hopefully I can get my breast pump and stroller/car seat system (with reimbursement from the insurance for the pump). Diaper stuff (should we get everything ourselves) comes out to $131.62 total for 30 cloth diapers and 5 covers, so we're totally set with diapers!

So busy days over here. How's everyone else??
