Took it out and opened it. Nothing inside but a plain ol' yolk that didn't look the healthiest. I'm always leary of my candling so I usually leave them alone, but glad I didn't so THANK YOU!

Well I don't know about you guys but I am just too excited!

Out of 21 eggs (11 were shipped 10 were mine) I think I only have 3 that never developed and 3 maybe 4 that have quit!

After seeing many of you lockdown and hatch in little plastic basket things I went to dollar general yesterday to grab some. I ended up with 3 long skinny things about the size to put silverware in. But now I am thinking they may be too small.

Any thoughts?

Do they have lids? They will jump out sometimes.

It is chicken dance time! Everyone move back to their neutral corners for a time out and watch the cute fluffy butts! These are Ricky Bates HRIRs form Ron Fogel:

Like like!!!!

Thank you!

I think so too!!

I love those! My grandmother used to make them for my mom.... wow - i havent seen one in years...! do you sell them?

Yes I do sell them. My grandma always made them. Now that both grandmas are gone I have passed it along to my girls and taught them how to crochet in remembrance of them. They love crocheting.

sorry if it's already been posted:

My daughter makes those too. My grandmother did too. The nurses and doctors at work buys than from her all the time. hecalls it her cat fund. People drop cats at her house all the time. She takes the profit from these towels and neuter or spays the cats. Lower cost cat clinics are $25. per feral cat. Of course she made me a chicken one too..

Aww how amazing. Great story.

For those of you hatching in baskets or whatever... I have some taller tupperware type containers... will those work? or should they be "holey" on the sides... for ventilation?
