Big G wants me to just pay the minimum so we can bank some into savings....I say why pay $16/mo on a $1500 credit card which will end up costing us $4000 when I could pay $100/mo, only end up paying the $1500 and be done in a year. Silly man. Little does he know I keep moving money over to a savings that's not connected to the checking so if/when we overdraw that account won't be touched. Especially since it's only in my name
I got 19 eggs in the incubator last night. I would have had 20, but I dropped one egg on the kitchen floor.
I put the dates they were laid on there - there were 3 days worth of eggs, and marked them with the X's and O's so I can rotate them appropriately. I don't have an automatic egg turner so I go down there and flip them 2x day. I prefer to do it that way anyway - it gets me egg-cited about hatching day! HA HA HA!
I love candling eggs. I love seeing the little chicks move inside and watching them grow. I have another incubator that I may set up in a few weeks to have 2 groups going, but I'm thinking I'll wait until after little g's bday party to have 2 groups going anyway just to lessen the risk of someone knocking over something.
Opi's udder is getting a little bigger - I sure hope she's a doe that waits til the last minute and bags up right before birth. That would mean the mounting I witness was a successful breeding and little Jack did his job. Opi was so funny when she first met Jack. She started doing back flips and jumping off trees to try and impress him. He was much younger than her - she's 2 and he was 6 mos when I introduced them. He wasn't that much smaller than her, but still had to work a little to get the angle right
