Morning all...... happy Friday. We set record highs here yesterday, and going to be super warm again today. Had to break down last night and close up the Ouse to flip the a/c on which stinks cause that means a higher electric bill.

Iain.... How is the little one doing this morning? Hope you have good news to share.

QJ... What's the word on those goslings? Any pip action yet.

Kevin... I KNEW you wanted a large bird like an Ostrich or Emu!

Julie..... Your box is ready to go

Still....... Waiting for the last egg from the goose for your box.

I included an OE egg in both of your boxes, you will know which it is from the khaki color. OE's compliment EE eggs in a basket nicely.

Ok, with 300 emails alerting new posts that's all I remember. So update me when y'all get up on what I missed.

The sweds are doing great actually. I'll get you a pic in a few. They are fluffing up quite nicely.



No pip from #1 and #2 STILL hasn't made it into the air cell.

Somebody get on here and tell me what to do!
Or is that perfectly normal?

QJ, what day officially and what hour for 1 since internal? Have you candled again to check on them?

I just candled. Today is day 28.

#1 internally pipped about 36 hours ago. I can still see her beak in the same place. She's not pecking AS eagerly as last night, but she is still strong.

#2 has been trying to internally pip for over 24 hours. I can see her pushing at the back of the cell but she still isn't through it yet. I listened to make sure she didn't start pecking at the wrong end. And she's not.
