Believe you me, that felt like a long wait on them eggs

These other juvenile chickens will have me committed sooner rather than later

Today is Day 19 for my test hatch and had power outage for about 2 and 1/2 hrs. I first placed the incubator on top of the hot water pipes and covered with blankets. It caused humidity to go up the roof. Then I started calling friends if someone would possibly be home early so I can move them to their place. Finally found someone and in my rush did not place anything inside the incubator to keep the eggs from rolling. By the time I got there, DW called that the power is back. I think in my haste and panic, I have done more damage to the eggs transporting back and forth than the power outage would have done.

that they are okay after their "joy ride"!

They are sturdier than you might think!

Love the quail eggs......so pretty!

Well my DH may divorce me. He saw that I had put 3 of the Olive Egger eggs in the incubator with the Silver Coturnix and got all upset because I hadn't told him I was doing that. What I couldn't bring myself to tell him is about the 18 rare chicken eggs that I hadn't yet put in. He is afraid that I will get stuck with birds that won't sell. It is true that at the moment I have 3 too many roos. I am placing them on Craig's List but I was waiting a week more because a week ago two of the three tag teamed my senior roo Long John and they are all scratched up. So they have been locked up in the coop while John and the hens roost in the old falling down shed. Makes it hard to find the eggs though one of the girls comes and lays at the foot of my front steps.
If they fail to move in a reasonable time they are going to freezer camp and I will have some gorgeous feathers for art projects.

I tend to see all the ways things can go right and he sees all the ways things can go wrong.
