OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!!!!! So I just went to the bresse coop and I found two pullet eggs. I'm baking wedding cakes and cupcakes so I thought hmmm ill just use the pullet eggs because there's NO WAY they're fertile because there's only a dopey young boy in there and I haven't seen him showing any interest and the boy I got from Alisar isn't ready yet...... So I crack them into a bowl and am admiring the orange beautiful yolks with two little......white.....BULLSEYES!!!!!!!

I can't believe it! He's doing the business!!!!!!

Wow. I'm sort of in shock and had to share!

Perhaps he has performance anxiety so he's rehearsing when you aren't looking.

Has anyone tried to feather sex a serama? I am just trying to see if there is any way to sex them that doesn't involve vent sexing.

Has anyone been a stay at home mom, not worked in a year and had to dig up references?! I've worked at two places. Both have closed. I'm kind of at a loss, because I need WORKING references! They need to be supervisors, no less. How do you figure it out and how do you explain that you just haven't worked in a year because you can't afford daycare?! I mean, they're going to automatically assume that you're lazy or whatever because you have been "sitting at home" for a year, not even any volunteer work.

I was a stay at home mom for the first two years of my older daughter's life. I did a lot of volunteer work for my church and was able to use that as work experience and references. I interviewed for two jobs and was offered a position at both. I really was worried that having been unemployed for two years would make it hard to get a job, but the people that I interviewed with were very understanding. Both positions that I interviewed for are male dominant industries. They had even more reason than normal to be biased.

They were all for having the old references faxed to them! Whew! What a massive relief. Thank goodness that they're so willing to work with me!

Glad it's working out for you! I'm home with two lil'girls right now. I always joke with my husband that I'm going to go back to work so I can get a break!

You are your best reference IMO!

Isn't that the truth? Many people look at you like you're lazy. I'd love to swap "jobs" with them for a week... Before kids, I worked 70 hours a week and LOVED IT! Now... put them at home for a week, and they'd probably go nuts. It isn't exactly a vacation to take care of kids, animals, the house and try to make money on the side and of course do anything you can to save money...

Here, here! I was thrilled when my youngest started school, and I went back to work part-time. I got to work around people who could talk in complete sentences, who picked up after themselves, and didn't whine about what they had for lunch. It was awesome!

Well, I guess the people I worked with could form complete sentences anyways, or at least most could. LOL! And that was the office job I had! My personal care job was awesome until the office started falling apart. They'd get cancellations and never tell me, often 2/3 jobs for the day would be cancelled and they'd never bother to tell me! The last straw was when I sprained my ankle. I had a 12 hour shift the next day... I called them a good 18 hours before my shift and said I'd give it my best, but please have someone on backup just in case it became too much for me. I called when it got to be too much and asked if they could send a replacement. They said I needed to have an appointment to leave. I made an appt for 2 hours later and told the office. An hour and a half later they said they couldn't get ahold of anyone. It finally got to the point that I was in tears from pain and wasn't in any shape to be working for a client. I called back and said "please get the backup from the office here within half an hour, because that's how much time you have before I leave". She finally came, I got xrays
