Mahonri's 2nd Annual NYDHatch, watching them grow...

[goochgirl]

We are expecting 17 inches of snow, and I'm really worried about a power outage this week. My babies have made it this far, and i'm so excited about a hatch. It would be a real shame to loose them at the end. So, I get to sit here and worry about the power. Well, not really sit. My kids had a 3 day weekend, and they have already canceled school for tomorrow, so they are bouncing off the walls. The most repeated phrase all weekend," stay away from the eggs", "move away from the eggs", "don't go near the eggs"! Forget the power, they may not survive the kids! And I put them where I thought the kids were not likely to be near...

On the plus side, I found a hidden nest from one of my BCM's, so both my BCM's are back to laying!

I forgot all about chick starter.

goochgirl, my DS, age 10, has off school until the 3th of January.

Now I'm worrying about the the power going off I'll have to call around and see who has power if ours goes out. If the wind blows to hard our power goes out. So far we have no snow. I don't understand it, my boss who lives about 2 hours south is getting snow and my uncle who lives 20 miles north of us is getting it. It's all around us

We've been upgraded now to 12 to 18 inches of snow and 45 mph wind gusts. Keeping my fingers crossed that we ALL keep our power.

Here is my entry for the crowing rooster contest!

The rooster is 'little man' and is so friendly and tame! I don't really believe in holding chickens, but he is irresistible! He crows well for a 10-week old!

He crowed at me RIGHT as this picture was taken!

Daisychick, that is a beautiful rooster!
