Another sleepless night in Philville.

If I wasn't tried I wouldn't think life was normal  Didn't sleep Saturday night and every time I nodded off Sunday somebody woke me up . Daughter won't go in the coops with the roosters so didn't gather any eggs Sunday . After driving 500 miles I had to take care of the eggs and unload the car. I'll never understand why women pack so much stuff for an overnight trip. I didn't get the eggs locked down last night like I planned  and had chicks hatching in the turners this morning before I had the hatching cabinet ready . Had 8 out at dark and a bunch of pips . These cabinets they start hatching on day 19 every time and it's making me more nuts . Temps staying at 99 to 100 and I don't understand it . At first I thought it was the lighter breeds but I have Marans hatched already too.  But life is good ad I just as happy as a chicken on a fresh bug  . Got it figured out If I sleep an extra thirty minutes a night for my next three lives I'll catch up on all the sleep I've missed in this one

Glad you made it back from your trip. Extra packing is normal. What's there to understand?

Fyi, the self-blue OEGBs that my broody just hatched had pipped on late day 18. I wasn't home, but I'm sure they hatched on day 19. I assumed because its been so hot outside, plus they are bantams, but they are fine and dandy! I barely touched those eggs. Candled them two or three times is all.

It's a girl!!

Congrats!

Hope they enjoy the new school. I switched schools between 9th and 10th grades. My mother remarried and we moved. I hated it at the time, but it turned out to be a great thing in the long run.

We are retired military. By the time the kids were born, they were moving my husband every year or two years. Between K and 5th grade, my son went to 5 different schools. Both my kids have learned to adapt to new situations very well.

Howdy howdy.....
