Hatching Eggs / Paypal CHAT Thread

We lost our breeder pens last night in the storm , but we're able to find most of the birds and get them in safe our loss was minimal compared to what's going on, we feel very blessed that our home was spared and our goats are in good shape , lots of big trees down and lots of debris to clean up and rebuild our pens but all is good we survived now if Can get through this day without any more wind we should be fine. Thanks for all the prayers .

Hey Guys!

I just wanted to stop in and give everyone an update on what is happening with me, just so you understand why I have been so inconsistent. My mother passed away very unexpectedly earlier this spring. She is my best friend, it is like losing two people; my mom and my best friend. I guess I coped by obsessing over chicks. Two weeks later, I lost my grandmother as well. This, at least, was a bit less unexpected. On Mother's Day, my niece had a miscarriage. I have been trying so hard to keep it all together and keep all my comittments and relationships going with all of you.

Looking at all the emails I have yet to answer, I guess I am just not keeping it as together as I thought and I feel like I am drowning right now. Please know that if I owe you something, I am trying as hard as I possibly can to get it together and get on it for you. This just sucks BIG TIME!

I know you all get it, running a small farm and having and raising animals means you can't take a break, you do have that luxury. Please know I care very, very much about the promises I have made. My roommates are going to help me work on them today and tomorrow.

Yup, burned that bridge.

I feel thebridge was burnt the other way long before your email was sent.

one cant ask for patience and sympathy while they swap on FB on multiple pages, post for sale on another page and bid on RBA auctions. This world just work like that.

I love my new incubator. I am getting the best hatches in it. So far I have 55 chicks from this hatch, 11 chicks from broody hen, and 4 chicks from mystery swap. I have seremas, blue and black jersey giants, BBS and birchen Marans, polish, RIRxCochin crosses, coronation sussex, EEs, sexlinks. Here are some pictures of the fluffy babies.

For all those who need it:

As for burning bridges, I will be burning one here soon as well. I had not planned to go into the summer raising chicks indoors not hatching anymore swapped eggs. For the most part I have gotten what I claimed except from a few individuals. Summer starts officially one month from today. I have one more swap coming from Aye and a few from KrazyKat. After that, I'm done with hatching for a bit which also means no more chicks. Since some couldn't get their swaps out in time, guess I will forfeit those. I just can't wait for them to do the right thing.
