Are you crazy?? I'm going to be hatching out those slw eggs like a madwoman....LOL! No, seriously we've got the BR eggs coming..I've got some ameraucana's and ee's ready to pop out this weekend. The bator will be all freed up...all 42 slots....oh good grief...maybe those slw will pop out a few by next Wednesday and I can put them in too.....must not buy more eggs...must not!!! Hey...I will be at the p.o. all week except Thursday...I'll try and keep an eye out for those eggs...but call there please!! I can bring them to you if they come in when I'm there. Otherwise...don't have Don bring them!!

Renee.....those orps....stunning, love the size and shape on them..big, fluffy girls...Dolly Partons!! LOL Now you went and bought paint silkies......*sighs*.....

I would like to come and grab those cookies and jam tomorrow...maybe I can get a tour too?

Thanks, Trish! Wait till you see them in person.

Tomorrow works fine for me. Would love to give you the tour! My new babies are sooooo teeny and cute!

Last time Don delivered my eggs, he was very apologetic because they were supposed to be held for pick-up. Only three out of thirty hatched.

Rancher ---- Noah suggests wearing a wire egg basket on your head to keep the silkies from taking over your mind. He did that yesterday & said it worked pretty well!

Have they started hatching yet?




As a matter of fact they hve an I'm freaking out. Today is lock down day and the turner is still in the incu. I waited for it to level out and turned it off. I'm comptemplating opening the incu and moveing them but worried I'll lose the Alabama eggs. Mine I can replace. Mine are doing well especially the EE's. which I don't intend to keep or at least didn't.

Per trish's advice to just leave the turner and let things go. Three of four silkies have started and one unknown from AL and 3 for 3 Ee's and one Del.

Well so far an ee is out and a del and silky have zipped all the way around. I really hope the AL hatch. Of course it is day 18. Can you believe it?

Rancher.... they're trying to sneak up on you!!!!!!!

Seriously, though --- take the incubator into a steamy bathroom if you want to take out the turner. Your humidity should be fine as long as you get the humidity up high enough in the bathroom.

ETA: If they're zipping already, I would probably leave them alone.

Go silkies!!!!
