Utah!

Oh my gosh. Candled my eggs. Looks like I have 10/13 chicks developing! I know I shouldn't get my hopes up, but... I feel happy for my first time. :3 Eager to see baby Brahmas! ^^ Gonna double check...

Keeping my fingers crossed for you

I got my Aussie Spot eggs today! (Bantam ducks) ordered 6, got 8....the box was smashed! I was terrified to open the box....but all the eggs were ok! Whew! They are a pale green, about the size of a chicken large egg. So I let them sit all day and just candeled them. 2 of them have saddle air cells, but amazingly, the rest look pretty darn good! A couple of the eggs look like this...


Is that not the COOLEST swirly egg you've ever seen? That's so cool!! I just had to share. :)
 
Oh, the other three... One, which is slightly misshapen (flat on one side kinda) has such a tiny dark spot compared to the others. It's also the newest egg. The remaining two I just can't see well through the shell. Trying to decide whether to scrap them or to wait a couple more days. I'm hopefull I'll at least get a few chicks. Thanks though! I'm so thankful for the support! The most I get from most of my family is something like, "cute, you'll have more chicks" which is nice but they don't understand anything past cute baby birds. XD

I was talking to a co-worker a little while ago who was going on about her neighbors chickens. She thought they were great, but so noisy! "They must have about 6 or 8 of them over there," she tells me, looking amazed.


"Uh. Huh." says I, trying to look impressed.


"Don't you have chickens, too?" says she.


"Yeah. I keep some chickens."


"How many do you have?" asks she.


"About 60 or 70. Maybe it's up to 80. Hard to count them."


Dead silence ensues. She blinks a few times. "Aren't they...well...kind of noisy?"


"Oh, no," I tell her. "I only get the really quiet kind. Hardly a cluck out of them."


"Oh! That's great!" she says. "I should tell my neighbors about that kind! What are they called?"


"Stealth Chickens," I tell her.



Now, rest assured, I will enlighten her later in the night so she doesn't actually go running off to her neighbor to encourage her to get Stealth Chickens. It was just to fun and I'm not really known for my niceness...
