It is quite respectable! I believe it’s her largest, in fact. I’m sure it’s the largest number of good eggs she’s had. Usually there’s a slug or two but not this time.

They look great! And that’s a good number, especially with no duds. I gave my girl a big long drink after she laid as well. I made the mistake of bending over and holding the water dish in front of her face, not realizing how long she would drink! My back was killing me after her 5 straight minutes of drinking!

Thank you, everybody! Tulip’s doing well today. She graciously accepted an offering of two fuzzies. We’re expecting lots of beautiful stripes, with possibly a few of those as cubes. Now comes the easy part, at least until those last two extreeeemely long weeks!

Thank you, kindly. Tulip has always had beautiful babies. I’m looking forward to finding out if Baldr is het Amel. Either way, I’m excited about these future pippies!

Picking up the cluster of eggs is such a crazy feeling, like it has it’s pulsating energy. I know that sounds crazy but it IS a bunch of potential little heartbeats so not really inaccurate…

I can’t say I’ve felt that, but I do feel some combination of joy and awe, with a dose of humility. Every time. I know that all I did was provide the conditions and the care for the animals. Every healthy mother, every healthy egg is a gift.
