Newlyweds: So sorry to hear the eggs didn't hatch. If we lived close I'd bring U one of mine for company.

Newlyweds: Congrats on your pip !!! Out of my 18 eggs I now have 11 hatched....4 with pips and 3 that aren't doing much of anything and will probably be tossed tomorrow night. All in all it was a good hatch and I'm happy with it.

Hi all......I had joined this thread 'cause I too am basically a virgin ! I'm now on day 10 and have been unable to candle my eggs. I've sort of given up on that part. I'm using a HUGE LED flashlight and have even taken a styrofoam cup and cut a circle in the bottom, sticking cup over LED and...
I too set some eggs today..Ameraucanas....about 18 in a Suro 20. This is first for me too. Will sign up for this thread so can keep track of all. I have NO idea when I do what !
