Annnnd...Naomi's still brooding a plastic egg, Day Four.

I put in front of her a Sussex egg I'd just gathered, and Naomi slid it underneath her. I have five more Sussex eggs from the last three days that I will slide under her tonight, and pull out the plastic one.

I sure hope Zaccheus is fertile...

I checked after work, all 6 eggs still under Naomi, and warm.

I offered her some BOSS from my palm, she gobbled them up!

Tentative hatch is June 23rd.

Thank you! There's more to do at the park we're going to, that should please the 9yo. Aside from hiking and swimming they have a "mining station" where you can "pan for gems".

I did it once, place near Boone, NC. We all enjoyed it, dh, DS, and I.

I have a reservation in KY for a 2 bedroom cottage/cabin, like this:

It's not fancy. I mainly want to spend time with my family, especially my granddaughters. They grow so fast.

So far Naomi's spent 72 hours on the REAL eggs...
