OMG! I saw nellabrooder and thought, "Well first, it has to be REALLY angry, and second, a heart of gold, and finally third, look like a china cabinet."

No offense to nells of course.

Jake, have you posted pics of the little ones yet?

Good luck with the next hatch.

Good luck Jake! I hope you have a great hatch!

I don't immediately remember a buff colored one but, I don't remember what we had for dinner last night either. Imagine the look on your buyers face when they went out one morning and found it with a crest!

I was just wondering if anyone else has any Icelandics like mine with the laced crests?

 

[LarryPQ]

My sizzles have laced crests...

My icelandics are mostly dressed in white right now.

 

[The Sheriff]

Ok, let me rephrase that. Do any of you with Icelandic's out of the shell have any with laced crests?

Perfect excuse for everyone to hatch more, yes?

Nope no pics yet, got 3 light chipmunks and one dark, the dark is a little one, but active. Speedy has stopped doing laps since he/she got company. All eating and drinking well. Hoping for pips tomorrow,

so far temps are stable at 100. Tonight may drop to 99.

Thanks for the good words. They are appreciated.

I think I have at least one crested, curious how these 4 chipmunks will color out. Better then Gump's box of chocolates !

I am busy the next couple weeks with packing and moving to a place 12 miles away, will have a good chicken house, tight fence around the run with wire over the top. Hot and cold running deer all around, 1/2 mile to state and federal forest land. I will be working on the chicken house most of next week, moving it and putting a floor in, roosts, electricity etc.

Will be planting greens next week for the chucks, plus lots of lawn mowing clippings.

I am mourning the 12 that didnt even get to hatch, have much higher expectations for the two remaining settings.

Life goes on.
