Getting 100 Coturnix eggs from one breeder and..

24 red/red tuxedo/red-golden coturnix eggs from another!!! Also on monday my 9 marans eggs from a BYC breeder I won the auction for her eggs will be mailed out, and probably too will be the eggs from the BYC breeder I hatched out my first two marans from again! As too will probably be my trio of young marans! Can you say excitedly BUSY!? *on cloud nine* Hubby is a SAINT!!!!

Speaking of my saint, lol, not this upcoming tuesday but next tuesday we'll be going to the hospital to get a growth taken out of his neck...it's 4 inches long by 3 inches wide. He's had it for a year... the surgeon thinks it's just a subacious cyst which is expected but it's going to be removed and tested anyhow which is good because I want to personally know he's okay. It's going to be gross for me but iim going to be in the room with him while he gets it done (the surgeon allows lol) but i wanna be there for Ronnie while he gets it done. He's got a fear of needles and it's on his neck... yucccgghh! I'd be freaked out and I know he will be too when the day comes. The surgeon freaked me out a lil bit explaining how much it's going to bleed and what not... but he'll atleast be at the hospital and in good hands :)

I sold all my excess chicks today, and used that money to buy the 100 coturnix eggs. The reds I begged hubby for and he said I could but no more which is fine with me! LOL! Tomorrow we're pickingup 5 doz RIR eggs so i can incubate and sell some more. :) So now all that's in my brooder is 3 coturnix chicks, 2 marans crosses (one orpington, and one ee), and 4 pure black copper marans! :D *celebrates* NOw if only my coturnix quails outside would start up egg production and i'd be in business! LOL!
