Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

I liked it, but I'm a horse gal and I pretty much like any horse movie.

When I watch horse movies it makes me wanna go out and ride my own horse. So now we have the trailer pulled up to fix a few things so we can haul off to the lake this weekend for a ride. Got a new saddle pad for my B-Day and i'm itching to try it out. $160 pad for a speed thrill horse, I really have lost it. LOL, I love my mare just wish she would slow down and enjoy the trails vs. her previouse owners endurance trail competition dreams. She still hasn't figured out that her job is not to beat the clock. Last fall she tore or sprained a tendon or ligament in her left front. She got her leg in the fence and although she didn't cut it bad she did have a ligament injury that I had to treat. She was stalled for 3 months and then slowly introduced back into the turnout padock by hand walking everyday. She got to be a handful after 3 months of a stall and her leg feeling better, but ligament or tendon injuries are nothing to mess around with. I was holding my breath the first time I turned her out to the padock, she bucked and kicked and ran and twisted

I was so afraid I'de have her back up in the stall. With lots and lots of prayer the leg held and we have been slowly working her back into riding. She seems to be 100% now.


This was an old picture from last summer. She's nice and dark black right now since she is just shedding off and hasn't faded out from the sun yet. I should get her out and spruce her up a bit.


was the movie good?

Morning all

2 more Sebbies externally pipped, 5 more pulled from the cabinet and laid on their sides prepping for lockdown.

In the brooders we have 15 Sebbies of various ages, looking forward to growing them out to see the various colors.

She's pretty. I really enjoy horses but I've never had enough land to own my own and at the moment I dont have the time to devote to one the way I'd want to.

I can't wait till you have pictures of all of them. You raise very pretty babies!
 
Chicken, sorry to hear about your horse, but CONGRATS on being able to ride!! My #1 horse has been laid up now for over 6 months due to his latest horrid leg/hoof injury and am hoping he will be cleared to begin rehab riding in the next month.

In the meantime, all my new babies are good and today is day 21 for both my cayugas and my remaining utility toulouse baby... which is the day to draw pencil lines to start watching for dip.

Hope everyone is having a good morning!!
 
CG, I am excited you have babies growing in your bator!! Look forward to hatching time.... even though it seems far away still.
 
I have a question ..... what the heck do I do with chicken eggs???? when do I turn off the urner? Do I remover the eggs and if I do ... do I stand them up or lay them down.? can I pull some of them 2 days early as trying to make sure I have some hatch while grandkids are here.

Day 18 for lockdown, I think you can just turn off the turner and leave the eggs standing in it.



My babies are peeping!!! It's 2nd day of lockdown and I can hear them!!! Ack!!!! So nervous!!!!

They take forever don't they?

Same here. Everything is the same. Think I have 9-10 developing, but I'll be waiting until Monday when the turkeys are hatched and out to candle again and pull bad eggs so nothing going on today. Turkey's are going into lockdown today though.
