Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

Is WA Washington state? I thought there would be a lot of snow in Washington. But maybe it is too coastal. Don't you have high mountains? Sorry for my ignorance

YEAH !!!! Congrats! I cannot wait to start hearing everyone hatching soon! I have Cochins going into LD on the 23rd.. then more after....

No mail today either, and they are calling for freezing rain for the next 3 days, with temps around 29 degrees !
It's not that it is a lot of snow, IT is for a place that averages 1-2" of snow & a HIGH of 4" that USUALLY 98% of the time melts the same day! Out of all WA Lewis County (our county) got the most snow in all WA.

Well, my eggs made it to the PO at least. Now I just want them out of your state and into mine.
BTW: Your state made our news tonight! Enjoy that snow

I HATE meetings.. Especially stupid ones. The best thing about resigning my position to stay home?.. yes, the meetings.

Yeah, absolutely. And when I say that this was a stupid meeting I also mean that it was an unecessary meeting. So the next time you are cleaning kiddie spew off the couch you can revell in the fact that you are not at a meeting.

I'll try to keep that in mind at my next spew gig.


Although I will say, the meetings paid better. Just sayin'.

Woohoo! I'm finally back. BYC has been acting stupid and slow for me all day, but is back to normal now. Congrats on the eggs QJ. I found a few more blood rings in my calls today. Still hoping I get at least a few. I can see heartbeats in the rest, so they're going strong for now. My goose eggs are really hard to see into, the messed up air cells make it about impossible to see anything other than some veins. I did see tiny feet dancing around in one though. That eggs name is now Elton. Really hoping he hatches, I want him! Don't care if he's not the tufteds I originally wanted. I really like africans, jsut wanted something smaller and quieter but I want my little Elton. Hopefully his buddy hatches too, and hopefully they are a pair.
I saw an ad on CL awhile ago for WH and Cayuga eggs. Thinking about contacting them. I want some more eggs to hatch, but I'm pretty done on shipped eggs. Especially while it's cold out. If I hatch some cayuga's do you want a few for hubby QJ?

I just cleaned up some barf from my little one's an hour ago. Gross! Strawberry milk, baked beans, and mashed potatoes. Not to mention when it comes out one end it usually also comes out the other. I think I'd take a meeting.

Hubby says, "Yes, that's sweet." (He has girly moments).

I'm rooting for little Elton now!
So are blood rings a total bad sign? Cause I swear I have a veiny/blood ringy egg that has a dancing baby in it. Is that weird?

Oh man.. Is she running a fever?

I just got mine out of bed (crying) thinking she was playin' me and she is burning up. (The 3 yr old.)

It says SM is here, she must be reading all the pages she missed. Might be awhile before we see her.

Not unless there's nothing in the middle. A few of them had rings with veins in the middle yesterday though, and the veins aren't as strong and no heartbeat I can see. I'm hoping they're just slow.
I'm going to email the people about the eggs then. They're the same people I got my drake from, about 2 miles south of me, off the same main road I live off. Can't get much closer than that.
