Oh, look at all the cute pics!!
My chicks are still bumbling around in the hatcher (the few there are). For some reason, none of the Silkie eggs have even pipped.

Ok I'm cleaning my Octagon now for next time...

If there is a next time.

Could someone please tell me what's so fantastic about hatching? All the waiting, worrying and you can't even keep the chicks!

Like I said, I am happy with the two chicks that hatched - of course if the others hatch, that would be wonderful! But the eggsperiment worked.

Wonder what will happen with the second dozen TJs eggs I bought in a panic when I thought none of these were developing? They're in the 'bator next to the NY Hatch. *ahem*

And why not for Easter, too? After all, I think the major egg shippers for Trader Joe's probably takes far better care of truckloads of eggs than the USPS does of our little batches of shipped hatching eggs.

And I agree with everyone about all the background/behind the scenes work Laree has done for this M2ANYH!

X # of stars in the sky!

4. ANd everytime I go out to check on them, they RUN to me and try to jump out to get to me. I have never had ducks do that before. I think they think I am their mama.

Yep, they have indeed, imprinted on you. The pekins I had at one time, followed me around like little lost puppies. I would have to be very careful not to step on them..

Oh, and one more thing.............
Say my name!!!

The one I have named Stick Pin hollers at the top of its lungs when I leave the garage. They are fawn & White runners. Soo tiny!
