OK I'll be right over. And I'm a Nevadan now...yeppie!!
I don't mind non smoking rooms. Never smoke in my house or my cars. Makes both smell like a stale ashtray.
Sunny I've had horrible and I do mean horrible hatches since april. I spent over $400 from that time until Bill died and didn't get but maybe 5 chicks out of dozens of eggs. The eggs I've been hatching are all from my birds. Still no luck with any shipped eggs except a couple of d'Uccles. I lost one at about 4 days old and don't know why. This other one is sooooooo cute.
I can't wait to start hatching eggs from our birds. I still have them separated, but Clyde did manage to try to mix it up with my FBCM and Wheaten Marans roos. He's very dominate, so I don't think they will be very near eachother at any time.
I hope you're feel alright, BTW.
OH! Tell Steve he was right. Bill was there with me. I stopped to get gas and every wanna be gangster in town suddenly showed up. I looked at my car, watched them looking at my car and whispered under my breath "Bill, see. I really need you with me right now." I no sooner got it go of my mouth and the radio on the speakers at the gas station started playing "Don't mess with Bill." I just smiled and finished closing the cap and sat there until it finished and I was fine again. Best part of my whole day!
I told Steve what you said, he just grinned his huge goofy grin.
It is sooo nice to know that Bill is still protecting you! I wouldn't want to tic him off, that's for sure! Oh and we are serious about you staying with us the next time you come up. Til' we find a new place, we have plenty of room!
I've never had good luck with shipped eggs either. I've heard of some folks that do but it hasn't worked for me! I've got my fingers crossed for our Am girls to start laying soon. Mine are almost 25 weeks now and even the wheaton gals, which are pretty huge now (by comparison) are still not getting red in the face yet.
Shanyalv that Scandinavian Apple Cake sounds divine! I bet it would be perfect with Ron's BBQ!
I've been contemplating making some cinnamon rolls soon. That is something that would be perfect to make now since the time I spend standing is broken up into pieces, while I'm waiting for everything to rise. I have to say I make a killer creme brulee too! It is my favorite!!! I just can't seem to hang on to enough eggs these days to make it. I've been trying to for weeks now.
This darn egg scare has most everyone I know cleaning me out of eggs every time I turn around.
On the plus side... I'm actually selling them for what they're worth!
Genny, I'm sooo sorry about your little baby chick! Good luck with hime/her! I sent you a PM this morning.
Daegorn I started to warn you about the Marans' folks. They take their topic pretty seriously!
Then I thought maybe it was just me so I held back my opinions. They are very knowledgable about marans though! I'm sure it's just a couple of folks on the thread that are setting the tone but they do set a strong tone at times!
