It's this crazy weather no doubt..What the heck is going on with everyone's hatches this year??
I only got 2 cream legbars to hatch! And almost lost the 2nd one. I was gone all day yesterday, came home to it half zipped and motionless. Peeled it open and luckily it was still alive. Super duper stuck and gooey. Yuck. But I think I actually got a male/female pair!
ETA - all the rest were beak between knees malpositioned!

I hope it's a pair!
Ohh, wait, were you still talking chicks? 
Having a pair is good!I have a pair.
I had a batch of CLs last year that were like that - local eggs too. I've had more success with my CL "survivors" this year (probably because they were survivors), but I still get the odd sideways air cells on a few of them. I'm wondering about inbreeding with them... (They're also a bit on the odd, flighty side because of that darn leghorn gene).What the heck is going on with everyone's hatches this year??

Whew! I hope things work out well for them!Two of my goose eggs have shrinkwrapped but I think I caught it in time. Frees beaks and coated membranes. All 3 are breathing and chirping and the humidity is coming back up finally.
Oh me too.. It's got me a nervous wreck.Whew! I hope things work out well for them!
It's tuff when it gets like that. Went through it with my gandpa. I'd just sit and let him talk. He also had Alzheimer's so he thought I was someone different everytime I left the room and came back in. I just went with it.My friend's mom is really losing memory (not Alzheimer's, just dementia - apparently when you're past 80, you can't "get" Alzheimer's) so I'm going to try to go visit her more regularly to -hopefully - reduce my friend's stress. It was very interesting to chat with her, and I can see where, if it was my own mom, I might get frustrated. But, not being related, she can pretty much say what she wants, when she wants, as many times as she wants, and it's no big deal. I'm taking notes for my own children... "When I'm old, just let me talk - regardless of how true or silly my stories might be. I was 'realistic' most of my life. I've earned some creative licence."
LOL... My pair are diminishing.... wont be a commodity eventually.... meaning I am loosing weight... Yay.I have a pair.
