Too cute Nicky!! Thanks, but no relaxing yet. I've got a total of 24 in the incubator. Not sure about 8 of them I will know more tonight after candling. This one hatched early wasn't actually expecting any until tomorrow night at the earliest. I will have to match some cool quotes with some cute chick pix now! LOL
 
I have missed so much! So sorry! I've been working at my daughter's stripping wallpaper again. Have popped on BYC a couple threads but missed this one. Finally done stripping now I have to clean and patch, but not until next week. Then paint.

Yesterday was warm and I emptied the coop bedding. I do deep litter on a cement floor. But I am seriously reconsidering. I found 6 itsy bitsy baby mice, their eyes were not even opened.

Dispatched those pretty quickly. But then 4 more medium ones came out a little further in and then a big one!

I will have to reconfigure the coop set up to change to a poop board, but it will be worth it. I have never had more than 1 or 2 mice in there and they've been easily taken care of. These guys were towards the bottom of the litter directly under the roosts. How they handled that much ammonia down in there for their little bodies is beyond me! Ewwwwww!

Now the Good news ... I've got a new Chick hatched this morning. My first one ever!

I'm so glad we're all on the same page that the world would be better if I miss tomorrow. I'm surprised that Good Friday doesn't make the cut for days off. I was willing to go for half, but now it's nearing the end of the day and I haven't heard a peep about it.
