Morning all. Mud firmed up last night with the cooler temps so I wasnt sinking as I made my way out to let everyone out this morning. I am sure that will change when it warms up some. I got 19 eggs yesterday
from the girls, 5 of them being from the oldest divas. They must know my canning plans for them this spring! Delivering 2 dozen this morning to work. Egg sales have been brisk so my cheeps are keeping themselves in feed, scratch and pine shavings.
Incubators get set up and turned on tomorrow. I will be reading and rereading all the instructions to both and following them to the letter. I am hoping to have good hatches this year. Heritage rir eggs are coming this week and I have been collecting silkie eggs. I know the eggs from the terrorist pen are fertile as I see the bullseye when I crack them open for cooking and baking. I want to raise a couple of hatches and process them for future use. Hence the canning method. This way, if the power goes out, I dont have to worry about losing anything or cooking stuff. I will have ready to go chicken, already cooked.
Tab--congrats on number three. As a mom of three myself, it is a unique number with its own set of rules. Any more, its just another kid. Any less, they have each other. Anyways, may you have an easy and uneventful pregnancy.
I think if we are going to have a sequester, the first layoffs should be the 535 positions held in Congress along with our esteemed leader. Seems only fair in my opinion. Thats all I'm going to say.
