Granny you rock!
I just put 18 homegrown quail eggs in the incubator. ? Whoop Whoop! Lets see if hes shooting blanks.. lol
Like mike wants to build me any more pens!

I swear I haven't left! It's been a pretty awful week, to be honest. My stepdad's mother passed away.Things have been pretty dumpy, so the quail were on hold until recently. They WILL arrive in the mail sometime this week. Probably Tuesday or Wednesday. I've got five more little morpington eggs in the incubator, so they'll probably hatch around the same time as the quail. Wanted to go to the asian supermarket today to test those fertile eggs, but the car was occupied. It will have to wait again.

Anyway, Pip and her pals are doing well despite some ups and downs. We did have a fatality, unfortunately. One of the morpingtons was failing to thrive, so we made the hard decision to dispatch her. Since moving the last bantam inside, that hawk has all but disappeared. I'll probably see him again come spring, but I'll be prepared. Pictures of Pip and her friends are coming soon! As well as some pictures of some new additions to the household. My cat had kittens two days ago! They're so sweet.

the only thing I have incubated are cold and flu germs. Let my hens raise this years crop. So sad about sarkism hope she gets better soon. No such thing as to much bread, LOL

Stale is better for pudding.
Quail take 17 days
