Uh, oh, Dan's doing some shimmying this morning. Saw him do it twice, so we may be getting ready for a hatch here. :nervous:

I'm glad someone else saw the shimmying. I thought it was just me and my imagination. He just did a little at 8:10.

Still waiting for egg count this morning. Cher was "due" for #2 last night.

The problem is that he's shimmied before...

I'm still waiting for an egg count too....Dan looks like he's falling asleep...we need Cher to wake him up...

7:43pm and Cher is standing up. Seems like she doesn't want to lay down. I think #2/5 is on the way.

mwplay · **Joined:** Sun Feb 28, 2010 12:15 am **Posts:** 10250

Definitely in labor!!!!

She's pushing pretty good. Just about to lose light. Just a few more minutes left...

mwplay · **Joined:** Sun Feb 28, 2010 12:15 am **Posts:** 10250

I think #2/5 has arrived. She did one final big push and now she's holding still, just like her first labor.

That seemed pretty quick to me but I was in another room, came in to find her standing/squatting over the eggs.

Oh well, light is almost gone. I think she's laying down now. Will have to look for #5 tomorrow morning.
