ok guys my eggs are still working hard.
under the red hen i have 6 eggs, all 6 are ext pipped =) vs 1 when i checked at 11 am (its not 4:30)

under the black hen.
she has 11 eggs.
i have 5 ext pipped no wait i think it was 6.
some other are working. 1 still nothing.
any that are not ext pipped by tonight are being moved to the bator, and im gona ext pip for them, leave them for tonight and tomarrow either help, or sit back and let them hatch themselves (if they by chance are a little slower than their siblings)
but i will not loose a baby simply bcuz they couldnt do the shell themselves.
 
Last turkey finally pipped. One isn't making any progress but.. I don't want to help it. Sorry.. I just don't.

One duck zipped, waiting on it to push the cap off.

2 more duckies I'm sure are going to need me to intervene, but they're fine for now.. maybe tonight. They pipped up and stopped.

Ugh.
This little turkey is growing on me. I like him.

Wait until you've been around turkey poults a little bit. They are the sweetest friendliest baby chicks I've ever had. They remind me of a lone chick/duckling, except they stay friendly even if they have each other.



Oh forgot to mention.. the city sewer line is clogged and backing up into our basement. So gross.. so gross. Waiting for the city to get here. Hopefully they will reimburse me for the plumber I just paid to find the problem.. (which turns out really wasn't my problem.. it was the city's.)

Ewww. Good luck getting reimbursement.


I bought a dozen fertile Silver Pheasant eggs today!
