?! You have changed the date?

No, I am just a strange person, with an odd sense of humor. :D

Woke up to find pip#3! Hallelujah! Come on chickies go go go! Basement temp may be affecting it. I had thought it might, should have moved bator but I don't have anywhere I could have placed it without it being in the way or where it wouldnt be bumped. Wonder if wrapping it in a towel would help? Quail eggs going in next.
Dang I was afraid you would say that about the rain. Yeah try to use icky water left from chickens and if you can scoop out some from your bath or sink after dishes are done. Have done all three here before during a really dry summer when my barrels went empty when we had our old well.(I even ran the drain hose from washing machine to a huge plastic tote for water for plants outside.)That well casing collapsed later that winter during the coldest it had been here in years. I just hope to try to give you a few more ideas. Wash water may stink but it worked. Plumbing it was tricky part. After it went to the tote I filled a bucket then carried it to my barrel and filled it. I use to have 3 rain barrels, now only two. I cut down my flower bed so less watering and weeding.

:celebrate

So if I understand correctly the logic then:
If pen birthday = Christmas
Then
Pen=Jesus??

BantyChooks AKA Banti or Bubbles
17 shipped EE eggs on day 6. 14 are alive!

Chaos18 AKA Trouble or Chaos
6 eggs on day iforget.

MotorcycleChick AKA MC or Abi
Two broodies on day 7 and day 13 (or 14) IDK how many eggs. The first one is mean!

The 27 emu and 56 'gators aren't going into lockdown until monday.

kwhites634 AKA Whites, Whitey, Ken, Red Dog..... Just not late for supper
Broody: 5 RSL x BCM eggs, and she'd pushed one of them out....I gave it back to her, but there's probably something wrong with it, or she wouldn't have pushed it out.
Incubator: 12 BCM x RSL due the 4th....don't look for many to hatch out, though...several clears...only movement in 1 when I checked 2 days ago. UPDATE! One pip beginning of 7/2!


daxigait AKA Dax or Daxi
Broody has eight eggs 6/24, but I don't know how many are fertile since my cockerels are young and only with the hens on the odd evening. Green egg layers CL over OE/BSL/BR/RIR. Candling this weekend I hope.


Jessimom AKA Kathy
I have 14 BCM that gotro17 had shipped, 4 legbars (I think were also shipped), along with I think 12 of my backyard chicken eggs - these are on day 10. And I set 28???? eggs 2 days ago. It's a mix of gotro17's backyard mix eggs, and mine. I'll do an accurate count if I ever candle them.

Mine are probably not all fertile, Since we pulled the roosters several weeks ago, and the baby roos were just starting to figure out how to play with the girls when they started to crow and got pulled.. I currently have a BEAUTIFUL Salmon Favorelle and 2 black silkie roos in my basement. Waiting until I figure out what we are going to do with them.

I also have 2 broodies sitting on eggs. Not sure how far along, or how many eggs. They both should be getting close though.

Pensmaster Known as Uncle Pen to some, Pensmaster to the rest
13 Altsterier eggs under broody. Started 6-24. Three candled yesterday when the hen got off for water all three growing beautifully. Surprised as they were abandoned a couple times and eggs were washed.

Morning MC and Phil!
Ohhhh boy hubby is up, there goes my time on here. Crap. Have a great one I will try to get pics of any hatchery today. The other two are doing good. The first one with the yoke issue is smaller but up and moving. Loud lil stinker too. Eating and drinking well too.

:celebrate

So if I understand correctly the logic then:
If pen birthday = Christmas
Then
Pen=Jesus??

No, every holiday is just changed.
Typically, I do not say Merry Christmas until after Easter.
For Easter, I will wish someone happy Hanukkah.
For Independence Day, I will wish someone a happy Thanksgiving.
What ever holiday I can think of at the moment that is the most outrageous, that is what I will say.
