Good evening! Feeling slightly better tonight. I think it was the 2 hour nap...or maybe the Margarita at dinner?

We (ds and dd) took the littles to Mariachi tonight. I will just say that it will be a while before we go again. The weirdest thing (my son is the one that pointed it out) when one is acting badly the other is good as gold; then it's like flipping a switch and they change personalities! I dont know if it's because they are so close in age? My kids didnt do this. Anyone else experiencing this phenomenon? They were happy to hit the sack tonight even after our nap. Maybe they are coming down with colds too?

I had a nice surprise today...You cant really tell the color of my new egg in the collection--it the green on the right.

It is a little more visible on the white counter in the kitchen.


I wonder why it's so hard to get an egg's true color in a picture? This one is a neat greenish color. Not at all what I am used to getting! I have a new pullet here and she is supposed to be an EE. She has no beard or muffs though. The other egg that was in by these two hens was just huge! I should probably try to hatch them both since they are in with JJ's cuckoo Marans roo!
A question...since this EE lays this greenish egg, if I bred her to that Marans would the resulting pullets be olive eggers or does the EE throw brown egg genes too?

I sure hope the Mom gets here soon...I am just about to fall asleep all of a sudden! I think it's odd that I can be so awake and then so tired.

Sweet dreams everyone! I think I will turn out some lights and get ready for bed! TerriOtiredtiredtired

(PS) what kind of goats does your sis have Cutie? I want to say Alpine but they dont look quite right. SO adorable...as all babies are!

Hi All!

DrH... Poor Kissy! Naughty Toby! If it's only 1 stitch and it looks clean... I would just use a little crazy/super glue. That stuff saved us thousands on trips to the ER and the vet! I think all may kids had something glued at one point. My 2nd son (the one that was a Marine) was a very clumsy kid...He's probably been glued on almost every part of his body! LOL I think it leaves less scarring too. This last summer when poor Rose got ripped open by that rooster, I glued her. That was about a 4" gash. That took a couple of days to get fully glued, but it worked! Yep, you can tell when those chickens don't get enough bugs. Eggs are tastier with more bug!

JJ.... Cool Picks of a hatch!

Delish... Pretty birdies!

vicki...OK, I re-read the post.... I thought you said it pays $4 an hour, it's $4 an hour less than last time. I get it now!

Good Luck!

Grrrr..... went and did some stuff and came back to finish replies.... now I have a headache! Things are a bit fuzzy so....
Welcome new people.... cute pics! I love goats! Cool eggs!
My son seems to be feeling better though not quite over it.
Remind me to ask about turkeys later..... Night!

Sara, now forever to be known as QP.

So glad you decided to join us! What part of Wauk. Co. are you from/near?

I put the thermometer in the center of the incubator because I moved the egg cartons and the temp says 102.2. When I had the thermometer on the side it says 100.2. I had it in the middle when I first started and the temp was 100, so now I am confused. Should I worry?

The chicks are doing so well..In one day they are larger than the Silkies..they love FF. There is a really huge splash Ameracuana..I sure hope it is a hen. I have a few Black Ameracuana's too. The sire to these chicks won some big award and show in Texas this year. I am looking forward to some beauties.
