Official Squatch Watchers

That taters, Sam. I wonder what happened, if mom just stayed off of then too long for some reason? Was she an experienced mom? The weather could be partly responsible, it had been very unusual for most of the country and may have thrown her off.

If you start over, make sure there's a brooder set up, or at least an area in the coop where they can go to stay warm, if the hen decides to leave them for a while.

I think you are on the right track. I believe they got cold. She has hatched and raised three times now.
 
Checking in gang! Sorry so late; it's been super hell here lately.

Buddy (Wiggles) had well over 2 dozen seizures throughout the weekend. Had to play the waiting game with his blood test results. Although his meds are *well within normal range*, The DR put him on the addition of Bromide, which I'd read about several months ago, and which PBM reminded me of yesterday. IF this doesn't straighten his seizures out.. LUCKILY there are many other options available. Thank you @staceyj for your recommendation of gabapentin. I will DEFINITELY keep that idea in my head in case the mixture of the phenobarb, bromide and his *homeopathy* treatment doesn't work.

Buddy with his *buddy*, Thunder Monkey. How could you NOT wanna help that cute little Wiggles?!?

In the midst of all this, I am STILL trying to get our web page up and running... we're currently collecting in the neighbourhood of 20 eggs per day.. and 2-5 of them are small..... not quite sure what to do with them yet... think I should sell them as a separate dozen for a smaller amount?! Or find some hipster way of specializing them and selling them for $8 a dozen?!?!? :lau

In addition to all that, the PIC came across something online he wanted to try, called geocaching. We did that today and it was simply the COOLEST outdoor activity we've found in a long time.

I really miss you all so extremely much! I need an extra hour every day to make it out here.... I am getting BYC withdrawals!!!
