It might look like flailing, but that's my Lemon Blue dance!

I woke up this morning ~ 9am sleep in day

or am I just

BUT I have 3 Buff Cochin & 1 LEMON BLUE !!!! (These are out of my cochin mix color eggs)

I have 6 pipping & 2 that should still ~

Meaning I now have 10 pretty for sures including my pippers out of 14 shipped eggs! With a possiblity of having 2 more making it 12 out of 14 eggs!!! (still not my 100% I want

)

I am so Eggstatic Right now! So I now have 2 lemon Blue Cochins....

for more & I would love to get a spangled one, and laced..... I love this shipper/seller. I have bought from her a few times now, and have had great hatches

Wait, can I stack eggs? If I can then I may get those SA eggs this week

Celtic, can you give me a total for 5or 6 SA eggs shiped to TN?

 

[CelticOaksFarm]

Our shipping is always the same. We use priority mail at $17.00

2 doz chicken or duck eggs
6 goose eggs

Anything over these numbers requires two boxes to keep the eggs safe. Yes people have and do stack eggs, I don't reccomend it though as the turners can cause them to tumble.

Here are the first three all fluffed up. I

the dark silver one!



This is the ducky that pipped on the wrong end and hubby had to help it hatch:


Finally, here is the miracle baby that has made it almost 12 hours so far:

Very cute Iain. It took my little duckling 2 days until he could lift his head, and he was 3 days old when he started walking, so I've got faith your little guy will be ok. Ducklings are hardy little babies.

Hmmm, so if you can't ship the calls on time for the easter hatch could I get a dozen EE and then have any call eggs you get by then added and shipped with?

Thanks for making me feel better about the little ducky, Julie.

Question for ya.... the one ducky that hatched ok 14 hours ago looks ready to be moved to tank. But he has yolk string and pieces of shell/membrane stuck bad on his back (don't think it is his, but not sure??). Should I try to remove it and if so, how? Should I just leave him in bator until it is gone... or not worry about it and put him in brooder tank?

If it's stuck I'd just leave it for now, or you can give him a bath and take it off. The water should help unstick it. I just left it on my little magpie duckling, and he got it off a day later after they went swimming.
