Oh, and I finally candled them today. Tossed one clear one and I am a little worried about some small air cells on my Marans eggs but only time will tell. 16 were set and 15 made it to lockdown!

It's lockdown day here! Can't wait till Saturday, hope I don't miss all the fun while I'm at work.

So far I've resisted the urge to candle. I'll probably do it today, but most of my eggs are from BCM so who knows if I'll be able to see anything or not.

Are you asking how many eggs will hatch out of 15 you have under one hen? I would guess none of them will because that is just to many eggs for one hen to keep warm, IMO.

I'll join! I set 16 eggs yesterday at noon. I'm trying out my homemade bator, seeing if it works with eggs from the backyard before I order the eggs I want. I also have 3 eggs under a broody that are due to hatch in 2 weeks. My husband...

That's great news!!! Glad she's doing better!
