Hi Eyeheartquail, my corturnix are starting to crow, and I'm gonna make ann egg box, they are 6 weeks old now. I also got 14 more button quail eggs in yesterdday.

Yay! My babies are just over 1 week now. I need to check my fertility again. Since the I check my fertility last time I think my male has stepped it up a notch. I am getting lots of humping and bald heads now. He wasn't that sexually active before. I still want to add another male to the mix though.

MY POLISH CRELE CROSS BABIES !

Some GOOSE BABIES !!!! I have hatched 5 American Buff, 3 Pilgrim, 3 Sebbies, 2 Wild gander!

My Wild Gosling Canadian Gander crossed with a Toulouse/Chinese Momma

Great pics Jaz!!!! I love them!

EVERYBODY LISTEN UP!!!!


I just candled my eggs, from my ducks, and THEY'RE FERTILE!!!!!!

4 Ancona and 2 mallard!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 are not, but they were probably the oldest 2 there. YAY!!!!

I'M So ExCiTeD!!

YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!!!!

I HATE this City. I almost just got robbed in my own front YARD!

Paula- How do you and Jerry both post at the same time? Do ya'll have them fancy phones with the intranet on em?

I was taking all the dogs out for one last time. I was taking out the last dog out (Cookie) for the last bathroom break for the night. I hear loud talking a few yards away. At this point I could tell he was intoxicated or high. Then he walks up onto the grass. "Nice dogs you have". At this point I'm nervous, no one else is out there with me except for cookie. "I say Thank you" and slowly start moving backwards. At this point he comes even closer and says would you mind putting your dog up I'd like to talk to you my mother died a few weeks ago. At this point I'm screaming inside thinking I can't believe no one is out here for me and I'm gonna die just because my dog had to take a leak. So I reply "Can she go potty first?" Trying not suspicious but once inside I was just going to grab the pistol. I slowly walk toward the house but can see he's following me. So I say "Oh sweetie are you not done yet?" And take her back to the yard. At this point she won't go and is barking very loud and you can tell she's ******. So she's trying to lunge at him now. You can tell he knows that I know what's going on. He says Just give me the ... and starts to reach into his pocket when I thought "50/50 chance he has a gun so might as well take my chance." Before he finished I ran at him like a Mad Woman with Cookie barking and growling. He stands there for a second then takes off. As soon as I saw he was running. Cookie and I ran toward the house and locked the doors and I grabbed the pistol.

OMG SO GLAD YOU ARE SAFE!

She'll defiantly be getting some treats and some Extra dog food in the morning! I was so upset with her harming the birds a few weeks ago but at this point I've forgiven her. Her instincts may have harmed the birds but they also just saved me from being shot.

Yay for guard dogs!!!

SAD Jasmine tonight..... My GREAT friend who has MS & one of my therapy dogs ~ just told me she has Cancer too..... I am at a loss, I am Hurting, I am Mad, I am .....

3/4 of the babies look like this. which should be grey.
i have a few blue. 1 black bibbed.
and there are 2 in the bator that im not sure what they are.

one may have leg issues (still in bator in a cup)
he has his legs under him but he flips himself over constantly.

only 2 still in their eggs now, 1 semi attached to his egg.

these guys are noisy,


10 babies in the brooder,
i switched duckie "moms" now tho to a slightly bigger duck that was easier to get under,


riley will not leave their side, he is all worried about them.

so cute! glad you had such a good hatch

I want chocolates,, the friendliest breed of them all. And dark, I like mine to blend in to the natural surrondings. (It helps hide how many birds I have)

I've had a rough day. All of my little turkey died in their shell. They were moving and shaking yesterday, and then today, nothing. I checked one, super shrink wrapped, and I opened it, but it was dead. All of them were dead. I was so sad to toss out 5 midget whites and 3 chocolates. Beautiful and Perfect, and dead. Now I'm in the middle of a full service goose hatch.

I'm very dejected right now. Oh, I had one pheasent pip, and when I had to help him, I realized he was shrink wrapped. I checked the other 3 eggs, and two of them had tiny perfect dead pheasents.

that is why i love big dogs, although my little dog i use to have would have given him hell too! glad you are ok

Lucky had a foot thing for a day and a half, then it cleared just as fast. Hes perfect now. I think give him a few days, if he's not in pain. Can he reach food and water?

What a rough morning for you bakingintherain. I'm awefully sorry.
