Shark snipers Wine dots NEW HATCHES and puppies 1/24/2011 update

[sonew123]

ok Im going to pull my count from the first day I set-I feel kinda bad for those eggs that didnt make it this far so here goes

5/12 BLRW from Fay
3/3 olive eggs from me
0/15 BLRW
10/12 BO and BBS orp from lockedhearts
4/7 Standard cochins from me
1/8 Standard Light brahamas from SundownWaterfowl
2/2 testers eggs Buff Silkies from SundownWaterfowl

so I started with 59 eggs and Down to 16:-(
Sundown is sending a new batch next week for hatch #5

SO Ive lost alot to blood rings and clears-about 10 quitters within the first week? I think they were quitters?

I hope these 16 make it to the end Lockdown is Sunday and Im plotting my next hatch to Start Friday the 26 of March-I hope this time I can get some of my eggs in. Silkies arent laying squat 1 a day-no more standard cochins pen-and EE's and Olive eggers are dependable right now so I guess Ill do a mixture of as mnay I can colect after I ship someone elses eggs out...Or Ill wait a few more days to collect more and start MOnday March 31st???

I pulled 5 more BLRW tonight-I knew I had to dont knwo why I held onto them for so long they didnt do much if anything:-( I figured I might as well get it over with and only keep the ones I know will make it into lockdown-

Hi guys. Have not been on much I have been at the Petiatric hospital with my nephew (my sister is a single mom) He is 13 months old an has been admitted.

I just locked down my eggs...12 hours too late. Do you think that will be a problem? 43/55 went in. Wish them luck!

Wow, Ace. Hope your nephew is ok!

I don't know about the lockdown thing. Would think it's ok. I wondered where you were.

Things seem to be going good here, have had some issues with temp fluctuations so I'll be moving the bator before next time. I did have to throw out the 1 polish since it was clear and 2 of the mutts had blood rings. We're all getting so antsy for them all to hatch. This has been such a learning experience for us all. I'll have to remind my fiance of how much I love him

Hope your nephew gets well soon ace

mouth is fine just where the needles actually went in really bothered me.

And Hoppy is a sicko! We were on here auction 2 seconds after she posted hahaha-I think right now almost all of us have above and beyond full bators or close to going on Lockdown-Mine is SAT I threw 5 more BLRW eggs away last night-leaving 5 from 27:-(
