Oh yeah, I just noticed your new avatar! He is very handsome!!
Do you have an incubator? Or know of someone close that does? I would do it for you but I'm awful far away. I would hatch all year if I knew they were going home to someone. Right now I'm hatching and brooding in my family room/office/desk area as we do not have anywhere else to do it at this time. It's not so bad until they get about 3 weeks old. Then I'm ready for them to be out of the house(or at least out of the family room!)
Maybe I'll bring some your way next time I drive down that way. I'm curious to see what they will look like - They are not like my buff orpingtons where every chick will look just the same!
I'm glad CR is having a fun time finding his creative side and making all sorts of cool things, but I sure miss chatting with him here.
My bator is a lot lighter after tonight's lockdown. All I have scheduled is some a few eggs from Illia so there's plenty of room.
CR's dynamic personality is missed when he's not here. Here's hoping he does awesome at Stevenson!!!

Hi I checked a number of times during the day and as far as I can tell none have hatched yet. It isn't easy to check, that hen is mean and growls at me.

You are a gardener after my own heart. I love the sale. I mostly do geraniums these days. I bought some very large ceramic pots for the patio this year. I got in trouble for that, but at 40.00 each they were like half price.
From Costco? I saw some fine stuff there today. I never get out so was all excited about the garden stuff when I ran thru on my hurrying way to get home. Had a CT on my chest to check stuff there and an MRI to check on a meningioma. So anxity to get the results next month. But costco was sure a fun reward for being in the donuts and hearing the big hammering.
I got my pots at Grocery Outlet here in town. They had a sale on them. At this point I think all the pots are gone.

Well I am going to hide my toes under the covers. The nasty little puppy is trying to bite my toes off again.
It's a good thing she's really cute.
Just love this rainbow of colors!
Hard to see the olives and blues from this pic but they are very pretty!
Gonna be a fun weekend. This is the biggest hatch I've ever done!
Hope it goes well. Just thought the night shift might want something to look at while they are waiting for the sun to come out!
Think I better get some sleep. I'm sounding a bit loopy!

There's a Jack Russel on my street that barks whenever 2 air molecules bump.
We have a JR on our road that runs at my Yukon XL and barks his fool head off. When he gets close enough to my car I can no longer see where he's at. One of these days he's gonna become a speed bump if he's not careful. That is what happened to the female that these people had, she ran out in front of a motorcycle and tried to bite the rider and got hit. The owners had the nerve to get mad at the guy who hit it. We also have CCR's, and dogs are not supposed to be loose, ever. Why do they think that everyone has to work around their dog? Roads are for cars, right?
LOL! JR's have no clue how tiny they are! The people who own this JR ran it over last fall. She chases all the cars and people who come onto our street, including her owner. It happened right in front of my driveway, and the poor dog dragged herself onto some bushes in my yard. I did not dare go to it because it is a mean dog, but the lady called her husband to come get the dog and bring it to the vet while she continued on and brought her kids to school. It took her DH about 20 minutes before he collected the suffering dog. The vet repaired the dog, and it still hobbles around and barks at everything, but the dog can no longer make it all the way up the hill to my place, so it is not so noisy anymore. I hate when people don't take care of their animals. Even my DH who hates that JR with a passion was upset about its suffering, and P.O.d at the neglectful owners. Prior to that incident he'd always joke about running the dog over.
The people in my street say they have so many dogs and they let them run loose so the bears and coyotes won't come areound and it makes the neighborhood safer! What B.S.!!! I have 2 big dogs. They don't run loose through the neighborhood, but I fenced almost 2 acres of our property and let them run around in the yard frequently. The bears still come around and eat all the fruit from our trees
My 2 big dogs stay at home too because we paid the $ for perimeter collars. The neighbor dog comes over and tears up the beauty bark in my flower beds. And I get to clean up the mess. It was right there the day we put our chickens in the run for the first time. So I called and told them. He assured me that his dog would not be back. Time will tell. So I'm gonna string up electric wire just in case. I can't be home 24/7. We got the one that the gal said would make you see stars so I think it will work on a Lab. Only if he gets too close!

Both my dogs figured out that their fur protected them from the shock so they kept their nose down and just walked right through.
