Quick vent du jour(surprise, surprise):
My eggs haven't gotten here yet, Sonja, one of my best White Call hens that was supposed to show Saturday took a poke to the eye so she's in a hospital cage, DH is asleep in his recliner so I can't even run my dishwasher right now, Damsel(tiny White hen) has laid her 3rd soft shelled egg and I had to curse out Terminix(that was sorta fun).
Oh well, beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick...
Good news though, I THINK my incubator is peeping AND my brand new girl I got yesterday laid me a beautiful, hard-shelled egg this morning. It's going in the next time I set more eggs.

I just heard my eggs HIT the front porch...

Cursing here...so much cursing...

You vent away east! We are all here to listen! I hope your white duck is ok! How many are you bringing to show on sat? Are your eggs ok?
I just got back from riding... Lol I'm tired now! When I ride 3 miles with the kids and trailer ( 60lbs) I burn 550 calories! Can't believe it!

I'm getting some BCM from ChooksChick. I got them on the egg swap thread. I had a beautiful flock of them last year but I had to sell them (I got really sick and couldnt take care of them). Now I can have some more. I'm excited

Thanks, ady. The eggs are not broken so that's good. I'll probably bring between 15-18 Calls to the show Saturday.
Yay for BCM eggs for Sonja and I hope you're feeling better today.

SonJab, I love you avatar! It reminds me of my aggressive little Periwinkle shen she was a baby. Pecked at me like a machine gun.

Correction-there were 8 and 1 broke and STINKS like rotten egg(that concerns me). I've had broken eggs come in the mail before, but they've never stunk like that...
Also, it REEKED of cigarette smoke-had to take the whole thing outside.
I don't know if he packed mine the way he did ya'lls, but I ain't real happy with the packing job he did...
Sorry, I'm picky about that and apparently, quite whiny today.
