Today’s the day! Lovk down is happening and this is not a drill! I called everyone and they are positioned beautifully. My guess my first chick will be a silkie and it will hatch Tuesday! Now lockdown is already stressful lol. I feel dumb saying that the first 17 days were as bad as they were that seems like nothing compared to now.

So happy to see everyone's beautiful little chickies this morning can't wait for my broody to have hers. We are supposed to have an ice storm tomorrow so hopefully, the eggs make it through the cold.

Lock down is tomorrow! For me!

I always thought I was helping people waiting for chicks, by posting pics of my chicks, now I realize I was torturing those poor souls. ...I am Sorry.

You are lucky we don’t sue you for that torture! Lol. But I would do the same.

So I have a really crazy plan of getting rid of all my chickens except 1 or 2 and hatching some new ones to start over as all my chickies are related. Hoping to get some silkie eggs as they are the cutest. Any recommended breeds? Also have 7 eggs under broody right now. the rooster is an EE and she is a australourp, she has been stealing eggs from other hens so there may be some ameracunas, welsummers, or chantecler. So excited!Hopefully all goes well
