Sorry Beaner!

Did you candle? Were they for sure fertile?
Want some d'Uccle chicks to comfort her?

I forgot to mention earlier, but Esmerelda arrived on Saturday, rested from her trip, and went into the bator this morning.

Beaner...how you supposed to wake up after 40 min? Got an alarm? Does it crow like wegots phone?

I got the eggs late last night and 3 of them in 1 box were reeeally warm. Makes me wonder... I always wanted to try a broody....I have this blue orp that definately has broody qualities. Last season she stole all these eggs and growled if you got near her. Then she kinda lost weight and such but I didn't let her stay sittin on all the eggs for a full 21 days because I wasn't ready for more chicks until I could get the bigger shed moved and converted to a coop. Now if I move I've got to find a farmer to help me figure out how to move my coops. My mom said, whoever moves here will want them and I said, i doubt it....they're full of chickn poop. And one needs a new floor. They're mine. I'm gonna need em where I'm goin.

wow chelle...that's a great number.

 

[wegotchickens]

That's GREAT Chelle!

Yeppers, g~, move those coops...


We're under a tornado watch. I hope Beaner made it back inside before the skies opened up (she's in the tornado watch, too). It's POURING here right now. And the winds are picking up....

 

[maple]

She's probably the cause of it.

Howdy everyone.

Esmerelda is a great name for an emu egg, Lori!

I fell down the stairs for a change this weekend and I've decided that falling up is much preferable. I'm busted. Went to the chiro and he was a bit appalled. No lifting, no twisting, no mopping, no vacuuming. WTH am I going to do with myself for the next week or so? Good thing I just went to the library, I guess.

The library can be dangerous.... you start out with 1 maybe 2 books and by the end of 2 hours you have a stack of 11 books and 5 movies. That's why it's good to bring your own bag with sturdy handles.

Chelle 23 out of 24

! I had a dozen sussex eggs shipped and I think I'll get maybe 5 chicks out of that. One didnt seem to be fertile and the other 5 look like they've pretty much quit. I go into lock down tomorrow.
