mornin Mike!

Its really foggy in the mountain it was a fine rain all night, and its dead quiet outside right now! Everyone is sleeping I think! I usually can hear the cars on the interstate and I dont hear anything today, peaceful eeeerie ... can that possible be? lol and thank you!

Everyone is awake here. There's been Amish church traffic, but I haven't seen any cars. Roosters are crowing dogs are pacing.

It is raining here as well in bursts
Checked the weather on my tablet says it is 70 now with a high today of 68

I think they might want to adjust the high for today.

UMMM as of last night not yet finished I checked on her at about 6pm and got to see this


The Christmas Eve ones are getting big

Last count I think I have seen 5 maybe 6 different chicks.



Haven t checked on her yet this morning was just going to do that I bet she is ready to get up!
I have been giving her food and water and the chicks are eating as well.
I am learning alot from this with patience being top of the list. I will Never just say *Fine you may have those eggs* again. I will collect and plan for the hatch. I really thought she would get up at some point my last 2 broodies had rotten chicks or they killed them all.

They are cute *Yard Chicks* I might have to post pick of the babies and the possible donors see who matches up with whom

She is being a great mama so far. This is my first hatch and I feel a lot like CH33 but I was told if I touch the broodie I could injure the chicks and so I have not peeked under the hood

I would really like to find a nice sop for Lulu my cockerel
and I had planned on breeding some more Silkies once the "Dream Coop" is up.
