Mahonri's 3rd Annual, BYC Easter Hatch-a-long!

[Cattitude]

I'm that way about "Raiders of the Lost Ark"... I can listen to the soundtrack and describe the movie scene the music belongs with.

Ok, I'm off to bed after I finish watching Lord of the Rings The Two Towers forthe millionth time. You think I'd stop watching it once I know every line in all 3 movies. Nope. I just say what they're going to before they say it. I can mute the movie and keep up with them too. Ugh, I never realize how much of a nerd I am till I wrote that.

Do any of you remember this exciting auction..... way back when.... (5-2-2010). It was quite the auction back then! $822.25 for 12 eggs..... very special eggs.
(Jamesrm was the winner), and this was his post (post # 292 in the auction thread).....

I really miss the excitement of the old auction format. It was such fun.

We are rushing headlong to set day for chicken eggs!! Only

days to go!! After you KNOW FOR SURE what you are setting, go to Post # 1 and fill out the proper form so we will have an accurate count of the number of eggs set. Make sure your name is on the list on Post # 1 if you are hatching. If you don't see it, PM Mahonri and let him know.

It looks like I'll be setting more eggs than I planned on setting. My paint silkies started laying and a friend is giving me some eggs, plus the Cj's silkie eggs that are shipping to come here Wednesday. I originally planned on setting 12 but I think that's going to be doubled.

not a good day, contemplating going to the ER. If you believe in prayer, pray for me.

Praying, and I DO hope you have gone to be checked out.

Gee...imagine one of us saying that.

I agree!! I really wish Nifty had just bought a different domain, like BYCbid.com or something, and put that old architecture there just for auctions. It could double his ad revenue!!

I call them Rockshires.

(Barred Rock and New Hampshires). That variety is Buff Barred. I also have Buff Columbian.

They are some of the F2s from my Delaware Project. I only got 6 out of 200 196 eggs hatched, and they are all female. I am thinking.... sex linked.

I am going to cross them back to their daddy, to get another dose of barring, and get some males....... anyway, I hope this works.

I forgot to PM you...dangit! Still all caught up in packing madness! Doing that in a sec.

WELL WHERE ARE THEY TO OPEN THE BOX THEN?!?!?!?!?!?!

Excellent question!!

The boxes should be opened at the PO, or at a recycling center. The eggs are in a sealed box inside, and can be pulled from the outer big box and taken home. The big box and offensive peanuts can be recycled. I'm recycling them, myself, as I get stuff shipped to me for work constantly and I re-use it all for EGGS!!

Ok, I'll be setting an undetermined amount of eggs, but looks like so far NN/EE from SuperRX, Australorps and Chanteclers from happyhensny and a handful of my own mutts to fill out the bator. So half shipped and half picked up/my eggs. Now I just need space in the coops! =)

Mahonri I hope you are OK and went to the ER if needed!!!
