Thread formerly known as Hatch day is today

[country_girl011]

Woohoo! Congrats!
How cool! Sometimes I absolutely love the unexpected. It makes things interesting. I bet the pieds are cool looking. I would love to see pics.
***. Sometimes you've gotta hate the PO. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.

^ That said double you tee eff. Darn editor. LOL

i will take pics later of them
ithink the last baby hatching is also going to be pied.
i hate guineas but i may have to convince gma to keep them .
afterall we are down to 5 guineas


and yes i hate the PO at this point

 

[country_girl011]

You sent priority and they just told you were out of luck?

The day a PO worker tells me that is the day they get snatched over the counter

yup.
im pretty mad about it.
i just hope the eggs show up today .
personally i think they should have to refund since it took so long.
but since i didnt get insurance on it. (my mistake. from now on i will) its not their problem apparently

Thanks, Julie!

I tried to vent sex Barley, but she (I'm guessing) was struggling too much and I could not get her to relax enough to do it. I did, however, vent sex a grey dewlap that I thought was a boy and while nothing "popped out", it was not a cavity looking hole like Spirit girl, so I think I got it right. I will be taking Spirit back to dvm for follow up in a few weeks. I figured I'd haul all my dewlaps down with her and have dvm do it. That way, I'm not second guessing if I sexed them correctly.

I need a vet to sex the babies... wonder if I can get one of the kids to marry one

You know your addicted to hatching when .......... "maybe she'll (the rabbit) have a good hatch"

gotta love Hubby

Morning Dutch, yes they can. They are a color variation of grays, and gray stock were used to create and refine BF to get them APA accepted. Cute baby pics and nice shoe.

Hi Celtic....I thought that, was just suprised. I remember reading somewhere about taking a grey to BF and getting 50/50 offspring.

Dutch, beautiful butterscotch baby!! So happy you are having a great hatch!!! 'Bout time!

Quackers, looks like your baby's feet will fix right up with your shoe!! Congrats on all your hatching and selling!!

Bakin, I have friends who count down the days until their kids turn 18yo, like they are doing time. How much longer do you have to go? lol

Thanks Utah! Bout time is right! Definitely using broodies is the way to go with the Calls. Maybe next year will be a better year.

over half got 40 quail now 39 more to go

dutch i love the butter baby

Thanks!

All my sizzle chicks just went to their new home. Happy they got a good home, but I need some for me, lol. She wants more too, but this next batch is for me! At least the non frizzled ones.

And it will be nice having a few days without babies in the house.

No babies in the house?! What's that?

so the post office just told me i was outa luck on finding my package even tho it was priority mail

You couldn't find the tracking number?

going to get my mille and silkie chicks tomarrow.
and then when i get home selling 3 ducklings (which will leave me with my 2 odd colored babies in the house.

and then hatch day is thursday both bator and under broody call.
unless these guys are also eager babies

Woohoo! Congrats!

You got bleeped!!!

Kind of a stupid thing to bleep....

You sent priority and they just told you were out of luck?

You can stick them in with the naughty kids at your zoo!

Are they pastels? They appear to look like the 3 or 4 that I had die around hatch time, and they were out of pure pastel ducks.

Hello all! Here is a run-down on what I have hatched. Kind of funny...got 5 silkies and 5 Calls. That must be my lucky number, lol.
Silkies:
1 splash
1 blue
3 buffs

Calls:
1 grey
1 blue fawn
3 butterscotch

Two of the butters are tiny, and I still have one with the egg attached to it's rear. It should have been totally out this morning. I think it was Bakin that mentioned how orderly my hatcher was? Well it isn't now...looks like something out of horror movie in there! LOL

Dutch:
