How long now Auntie Mo????

[SarzWix]

Just checking in

[lynda66]

try playing them chick noises

[MaureenHall]

Good idea I've got a squeaky chick that I had for an Easter present last year, drives the cat crazy

I'm going out in an hour to my Gardening lesson (sort of College course but not quite) so at least they'll have a bit of peace and quiet while I'm out!

[lynda66]

you can't go out .... we need up to the minute commentary

[MaureenHall]

Well I've just got back from my course (very interesting, learning all about compost and how to do it properly) and checked on the eggs. No babies yet ........................................................... but look at the picture

According to my "swing the ring" on this one, it should be a little girl

[SarzWix]

Whoop Whoop!!!!!

[MaureenHall]

I think 2 more might be pipping, but I'm not sure, to me there seems to be a little bit of a change in 1 part of the shells

[SarzWix]

Isn't it exciting??!! Might have at least 3 by bedtime then?

[MaureenHall]

Might have, but I'm an absolute wreck right now! I'm really worried, the temperature went up quite a bit in the conservatory and near the incubator while I was out because the sun decided to shine! I know it can take hours for the little ones to come out of their shells, but I want something to happen NOW to put my mind at rest. Give me a hug somebody please? It's worse than waiting for a child to be born, at least somebody can tell you what's going on and if things are ok or not

[frias]

Yippee! Please tell them to get a move on though 'cos I really have got other things to do.

[SarzWix]

Awww ((((((((((((Big, Big Hugs))))))))))) Auntie Mo, I'm sure they'll be fine. Did they still have humidity? And you weren't out for very long, and the sun might not have been out the whole time...

[frias]

(((((((((big hug)))))))

[MaureenHall]

Yes, the humidity was ok (I think) but it does get hot in the conservatory cuz it's all glass and no blinds!

[Flummery]

Oh heck - ((((((((((big huggles! ))))))))))) I'm sure it'll be fine if the humidity is still ok. Won't be long now and you'll be a chicken mum!

[SarzWix]

Nowt you can do now, just hope! (And pace, chew your finger nails, pull your hair, pace some more.....)
Another (((((hug))))) coz I'd be demented if I was you
