Just got back from meeting QJ. She is awesome, and her kids are dolls. Going to the casino with hubby for a little bit, talk to everyone in a few hours!

Julie's awesome too!!!

Casino? You lucky duck. Hope you either win big or lose small.

Hello everyone!

I love all the cute baby pics. Seems like no matter how many times I've seen hatches, and handled eggs, even 30 years after I got my first chicken (a naked neck), Im still in love with birds and hatchies; Mine and Yours!

Who needs a soap opera? I've got all the drama I can take from my hatches, or lack therof.

Oh, bought a nice big recharable LED lite with 9 little light things in it. Its kinda big on top though, maybe 1.5" accross. I've read how some of you custom made the end work for candling. SInce I don't really want to go look at every post again (allready done that once!) please advised if you happen to be either knowledgable, or simply inclined.

OK here's drakey boy's new girlfriend!!




Look at Bunsen's green head almost all in.



They were intriqued by her. Following her everywhere.



So when she first got here she pretty much took over. The others were following her around and drakey boy was like

Seriously. He was IN LOVE. The other ducks ran up to her like, "Hey, what's your name." And he just stood there like..

Then she went off exploring and the others were following her. It's so funny to throw off the ducky dynamic and then see what happens. In the end, drakey, new girl and baby mallard were a threesome, and Beaker, Bunsen, and Rosalee were another threesome.

But then they all came together to swim at the pool.

I may buy that candler that chickso uses. I need something that doesn't take batteries. (all jokes aside.. lol)

She looks so much happier with big duckies. I'm happy her boyfriend approves.

I'll get more pics tmw. When they're settled down and will hold still! She was so super sweet to the baby too. I think those anconas must just have that kind of nice personality. The mallards are mean to him.
