I saw one of mine in a nesting box and thought there was a new colored egg there the other day, but I though it couldn't be... I'm glad someone else is experiencing the same thing! I'm curious too- is it possible???

Little Dan- They are so cute! Congratulations!! I had one pip last night and hatch this morning and 3 more have pipped since then, but nothing yet... I'm getting quite a workout up and down the basement stairs this morning, lol!

Saskfarmgirl- they are adorable! Congratulations!! Happy Camper- OMG, so exciting!! ...and I'm jealous about your duck, hubby won't let me get any! How do you stand the suspense?? I heard peeping this morning but now nothing. I have them in the basement and have probably gone down there 20...

Anything???

That sounds great! I'll have to check it out. Also, I can tell that there is an air pocket in most of them so I think that's a good sign :)

Hi! I was so glad to see this post! I just put my first eggs on lockdown and am so nervous! Hatch date should be Thursday, but I'm checking on them all the time. I also have mostly dark eggs (Frizzle Ameraucana x ??) and it was hard to candle them, so I have all of my original 10 still in...

LOL... yes I do! It was a thin piece of wood, I think a piece of mulch. They are in the flower beds scratching around a lot, and she must have mistakenly eaten it in there. Poor girl! She should be feeling better soon, though. Thanks again!!

Well, so far so good I got the piece of whatever it was is out, and she's back in the backyard with the rest of the girls. Hooray!!! Thanks again for your help!

Thanks so much for your help! She's hiding under the deck and I can't get her out, but as soon as I see her in the yard, I'll try again with oil and post an update. I really appreciate the quick replies

Hi! I am at a loss for what to do and I'm hoping someone here has had some experience with this and can help... I have a one year old female Mille Fleur d'Uccle whose wings have been a little droopy for a day or two. This morning I decided to take a look at her to see what's going on and I...

Thanks guys! You're awesome!!!

Thanks! I finally got to see the baby and she is so cute!!!

I'm in CT and just had a broody hatch out a chick last night! If there was another one I might bring them both inside, but for now there's only one and the hen seems to be doing a good job keeping the baby warm (I tried to look under mama hen this morning and heard the chick peeping). I have a...

Thanks for the quick advice! I really appreciate it
