The first guess is finally in!!!


I know there are others who had sad endings and ended up with no chicks. I need a guess out of you before midnight so I can determine who gets the gift certificates for eggs from Bargain and from me.


You know you want to incubate! Here's a great opportunity for glorious eggs!! Bargain's birds are just stunning!

(If you know of someone who ought to qualify, you might just send them a pm to enter their guess...)

Sadly, I now qualify, as our baby died over night. I thought, several times, she'd die yesterday. I'd pick her up and she'd still be breathing. I was shocked last night when I finally got the kids down and had to run downstairs I heard her peeping. I didn't think she had the strength! She must have wondered what happened to all the commotion.

I'll guess 1836. Thanks for doing this CC!!

I'm so sorry!!!

I think wolftracks is in the group as well. I PM'd her to remind her but I don't think she is online yet.

*raises hand* Smoker here too. I really wish something HEALTHY could replace that.....

Sigh, I quit smoking a few months ago, I still miss it; smoking was like an old friend to me. I still enjoy the smell when I am around others who do, but when they changed to those plastic-laden FSC cigs I hated the taste.

My chick order arrived this morning! I think the post office lady was a bit surprised when she called and asked if she had reached our residence and I replied, "no, I am actually in the post office"! I got up early and went and staked out the post office so I could be there the second they called and thus get to work earlier!

I ordered the 25 pullet Surprise Special and I got 26! I think it is about 1/2 Barred Rocks and 1/2 RIRs, which is perfect because these are for resale as started pullets in a month! Last time I got a great mix, probably just as well there was not a mix this time, because I would be tempted to keep some of every kind!

My little hatchling is still doing ok, I saw it eating this morning! It sleeps a lot, but perhaps rest will help it heal. I moved its sibling into the brooder with the 26 other chicks so the jostling would stop. I left a stuffed animal and a fuzzy chick toy in the hospital tank for company. I quickly noticed that the sibling looked EXACTLY the same as the Barred Rocks, with a white dot on its head, so I put a leg band on it so I could differentiate it.

Both my bators are holding perfect temp and humidity, I hope to be over-run with chicks VERY soon! Hatches due on the 15th, 16th, 22nd and 26th! Wheeeeee!

TGIF and the weekend just around the corner!
