My boy is my one and only and I spoil him rotten. The nice thing though is even though I spoil him, I also discipline so he's spoiled, just not a spoiled little brat. He is truely an awesome kid. I couldn't be more blessed. I keep telling him just to remember how much he loves me when he hits the teenage years....lol

I'm so dreading those years, with the attitude my daughter has at 12 I'd hate to see it at 15 or 16. That scares me, lol.

I know I missed a lot of quotes but I've got 3 pips!!! e
I had 2 horrible batches of shipped eggs and then this batch, that so far has been great. I bought 10 eggs, recieved 12 in the mail. 9 started to develop and 9 locked down!! Amy came back just in time to give me a parade if I hit, what is it for shipped 75%? Going to try to sleep while I can! So happy!

I think the most exciting candle is (if you have light enough eggs) day 3-4 when you can verify veining and see what is viable, and day 10-14 ish where they are nice and active but still small enough to see...lol

Day 3-4 is my fav too!!

Day 21 starts tonight on my duck eggs. Still have 4 kickers! I cant wait for them to hatch!

I am thinking about asking my oldest daughters science teacher if they want to hatch out some eggs, she loves ducks and has a stuffed mallard in the class room.

Good luck! I'm hatching too!

Yea, I have to figure out how to get these 2 little Welsummer chicks outside in a couple more weeks. Looking forward to no more peeping in my bedroom at night but not looking forward to worrying about them outside.

I'm going to try outside brooding with these chicks. I can send you info on it if you like.

Yes, a candling monster has been born!! I kept saying 'just the 10 I didn't see anything in yesterday' but that didn't last long, lol. I got to the 10th 1 and then I was like 'I'll just check a few of the others' You know, for blood rings but then I ended up candling them all, I think I have a problem, lol.

Yup, join the club. You're a candling addict! Me too!

I'm gonna invent a stubby flashlight & mount 48 of them in a rack attached to the auto turner in an incubator. Any customers??

That's insane!!! I can't do that much...I wish I could. Where is Georgia are you? I am in Savannah.

Okay so your not too far from me!!

I had that idea a while back, but it wasn't a stubby flashlight, it was individual LED's wired inline under each turner cup that you could turn on and off with a switch. I won't mention the name of that bator idea again :/ lol
