Vicki are you feeling any better?

I picked my granddaughter up at school yesterday.... she got sick on the gym while waiting to get picked up. Poor thing.... still sick too.

this pullet is the only one I feel worth breeding forward. Her sisters/hatch mates just look off to me... this pullet is the only one with a smooth looking back and good tail set. She just stands out. I am hoping she has good egg color though!!!!!!!!!!!! All my pol pullets are starting so I am waiting for hers....

I have always felt that the ones that just FEEL right.... The ones that stand out and catch your eye ARE The ones you should hatch from....
Go For IT! Tis the season to hatch eggs!

a bit better....mostly just stupid headaches from my sinuses being so full and not sleeping at night wearing me out and getting on my every last nerve.

yup, precisely. Everyone at work has been great tho and helping to cover shifts on days when I just can't go and have been able to go home early if I need to as well. I think without that, I'd be a mess and a half right now.

That is good...... every extra minute of "rest" helps.... even if you can just stop thinking a fem minutes. I have been busy moving young birds around and figuring out who to sell. Looking pretty good....I have about 15 ish pullets leaving and hopefully about the same in some older roos.
