I had 4 ducklings peeping out around their Mama's. 2 duck eggs left and 6 turkey. I sure hope I get some turkeys. Not a pip or anything from the incubator. :-(

My first pipper is finally zipping - hasn't opened the lid yet, though, about half way around. five more pips reading magazines in there. Has four more calves this morning - unfortunately, one of them is this kind:


Didn't realize mama had twins, and she thought she'd have to kill us. (Usually, they're very calm - most are curry-comb addicts!) Fell, tried to catch self, but... I broke my left wrist last Saturday, and it isn't scheduled to be set until Wednesday because of the swelling... could not get back up quickly. Fortunately, DH was there to save me life. It's been an exciting day and I want more pain medication. The chick is going off in the incubator- I think it's out. Will take pics later, but they're all standard LF breeds and mostly BO's, so not very exciting, LOL.

I did have a quick bowl of cereal many hours ago when I got my oldest up for school. But I think I need to go make a quick egg omelet before running out the door for work

So I decided on scrambled eggs mixed with cream cheese, feta cheese, diced tomatoes and a little onion salt. I would have never thought to add cream cheese or feta but oh my it was DELICIOUS!!!

Herbs can lift it to a higher level of delicious. I like thyme to feta and olives and oo. Scallions and cream cheese is my go to instead of sour cream and onion chips. Parmesan cheese blended into scrambled eggs is a whole nother experience. I have not braved adding a spoon ful of spagetti sauce and oregano. The best part is if you don't like it, toss it to the chickens.

bo's are a dellight!!

Sorry to hear about your wrist-- been there done that-- kicked by a 6m colt. HIGHLY recommend using the services of an orthopedist that specializes in wrists. My general ortho said he could do it-- NOT-- resulted in 9 months of useles PT and going to a specialist to fix the work done the first time. Lot of wasted time and money on PT and percoset and goldfish!!

Glad you are safe-- mommas can be very dangerous, as you know.
