Re: Good Morning!
I got a big surprise this morning when I checked on the incubator in the spare room just after 10:00 - since I was in the neighbouhood anyway. 
It's the morning of Day 17, and between 7:00 and 10:00 our first quail chick hatched. Very healthy and active (when she's awake) from what I can see. No signs of other egg activity yet. One out, 44 more possibilities.

Re: Good Morning!
Good morning,
Planted potatoes and Swiss chard yesterday, after venturing out to Farm boy for my by weekly food Planting gathering, some ply in dirt was needed.
Planting lettuce and mesclun today, possibly beens, must read the instructions first
The lettuce I planted couple of weeks ago looks freeze-dried.
Have a sunny day

Good morning.
Nothing is planted outside here. Yesterday, DH put together a cold frame on the back deck, ready to get the indoor seedlings acclimatized to the great outdoors.

Re: Good Morning!
okay, i can't count. there's 5 babies....lol. Mommas are out with them today, but avoiding me and the camera like the plague....oh, that's a bad joke right now....sorry. They're under the tractor right now, and when i try to get a photo they all run to the other side of the tire. LOL.
Was going to try to get the lettuce and broccoli and cauliflower in before the rain. well. it's raining. and nope, it's not in. none of it. yet. maybe tomorrow.
