Mother Mabelle Check-in 8

Hey Quilters!
I hope you have been enjoying this departure from the norm?

I try to answer some of the questions that have come in

about eggs.

If you have a question, don't hesitate to ask it!
Less than a week for Mother Mabelle's clutch to hatch!
Thanks for all of your encouragement and support!
Keep on Quilting!

Mother Mabelle Check-in 7

Mother Mabelle was moved today.

Not that it makes a difference, she is such a committed sitter.

She gets off the nest at night, and gets her a drink, and a bite to eat,

and to relieve herself.

Almost 1 week till the hatch if all goes as planned!

Today I share more about eggs and an update on King Tut.

Thanks for all of the encouragement and support!
Keep on Quilting!

It's been a few days since we last checked in.

Answering some questions about a hen laying eggs today.

If you have questions about eggs, this is the week to ask!

I will try to answer your questions!

Who knew a Mama Hen could stir up such interest?

I hope she is briefly taking your mind off of other things!
Thanks so much for your encouragement and support!
Keep on Quilting!

Candling the eggs!

No.........I am NOT turning this into a poultry blog.

I am loving that many of you are fascinated by

my chickens and this bringing forth of new life

during a really trying time.

Enjoy!

Keep on Quilting!

Mother Mabelle Check In #2

Hey Quilters!

Thanks again for all of your concern and support over yesterday's blog post.

Here is the second installment of check-ins with Mother Mabelle.

If you have any questions, I will try my best to answer them in the video check ins.

Just to give you all a little background.....
I wanted to do something for my quilting friends that would bring joy and something positive during this awkward time in history.  And who doesn't think baby chicks are one of the cutest things ever????  Mother Mabelle is a Black Austrolorp, broody hen that has sat on eggs before and has proven to be a very good sitter when it comes to hatching eggs.  She has even sat the required 28 days and hatched a duck for me......it only takes a chicken 21 days to hatch.  Hopefully you will enjoy these little Check Ins with Mother Mabelle, and it will give you something to smile about?
