Valentine's Day Hatch

[debs_flock]

The horrible morning that I had (ice everywhere, slid down the driveway with chicken food in hand, had to army crawl back to the garage, ruined work clothes, discovered upon entering my closet that what I was wearing was my last fitting clean pair of work pants... then sliding down the driveway sideways in my car...

Good thing you weren't carrying all those eggs!

)

I set another 8 eggs from my own birds... a project.

they are fertile.
added to my eggs under a broody, I set a whole 13 eggs...... that is pathetic.

I have eggs shipping out my way tomorrow and will add some more from my birds.

Pathetic? I am setting 7 eggs. All are from my flock. 6 Tomaru Longcrowers and 1 mutt egg. Its a test hatch. I am really hoping that the Longcrowers are fertile.

I'm here to hatch along, although, I'm not sure if I signed up appropriately as my computer time has been a bit disrupted lately...Anyway, tonight I set 70 eggs and will slide in one more in the morning...Mostly silkies - blue, splash , black, white/partridges, some Wheatens, Lavendar Orps, Lav. Am, and Welsummers and some really dark Black Copper Marans... Set them about 9:00 pm tonight.... Here's hoping and praying all goes well...........

Mine are set, but I was only able to set a dozen today. I set 34 eggs 3 days ago, and I have 18 eggs that I had set about a week and a half ago.

I have mine mostly set but I'll have a bit of a staggered hatch too. I set 11 Barred Rocks on Saturday which I won't count for Valentines day.
22 swap eggs
19 Iowa Blues
8 Iowa Blue/EE
Unfortunately I haven't received the Icelandic eggs Kathyinmo mailed me Friday

Hopefully they'll come tomorrow and I can still get them in!!

I set 129 eggs today. I'll set my last set of swap eggs if they get here tomorrow and some purchased BLRW and LO eggs (18+). I also set 2 duck and 4 goose eggs last week. So I'll have about 160 eggs for this hatch if I don't set any quail eggs later this week. Some of the eggs are test eggs and others are old so I'm not expecting a great hatch.

I will be setting late. The semester was over 2 weeks ago and now I have a student decide to come in and finish late work. Missing 13+ days out of 45 makes it kind of hard to pass.

Come on 4:00

Completely off topic but what do you teach? Somehow I can't imagine one of my teachers ever letting a student who'd missed so much come in so late, you must be very patient with your students. On topic, sign up... ah... lemme get back to you, I forgot to count how many went under which broody so I'm not sure what I set! Ah well, at least I'm expecting chicklets even if I'm not sure how many. Maybe it's part of the chicken math denial? If I don't count 'em I can honestly tell DH I don't know how many are cooking? Maybe?
