I only candle on days that end in Y.  

Now that I think about it, I do too. It's hard not to. Like when my cousin was pregnant with her first baby when I was 12, I wanted her to go to the hospital every day to get an ultrasound so I could see the baby lol

LOL My daughter would love to do that. Her favorite person is herself in the mirror. We signed her up for Karate - she spend so much time looking at the mirrors, she couldn't keep up!

I just try to find myself in mirrors

still cant find her, looked all over too.

Angels are invisible to mortals. You don't know that? According to the tv show, anyway

I had one chick, no matter what stuffed animal I put her with, she wouldn't be quiet. I held her for a minute to move her, and she shut up. I couldn't believe it. Her mother had only hatched her, and they were free range. She was 2 days old and the flock got attacked by a red fox. I ran out with my pistol, which is right next to the door, and I killed the fox in one shot, But the one hen he had in his jaws was severely wounded, organs out, screeching, so I snapped her neck. It just had to be the momma hen of the one chick. That chick had a mini chicken diaper hand made for her by me, and stayed with me for 2 weeks, going in the car, going shopping, it was hilarious with the looks people gave me when they saw the chick on my dashboard in my car as we were driving. I love her. She's a RIR and her name is Rose. Still have her, she's almost a year old I think.

One of the most common mistakes new hat hers make is opening the egg early and the chick dying because it wasn't ready. I left my mom home with a hatch, one externally pipped and after two hours she opened it up. Didn't have my phone that day, but I got home to find the chick on a styrofoam plate, as her workable, and her freaking out, trying to figure out online what to do next. Half the yolk was absorbed, I put it under a heat lamp and kept the yolk wet until he fully absorbed it. Sweet little Roo now, gave him to a friend that needed one. He's a buff Orpington. Runs up to you and always wants to be held, even now at 2 years old.
