Woke up to two new babies from my pre-HAL eggs with bad air cells. Yay! Two little dark EE chicks. The other two that I know were kicking at lockdown haven't pipped yet, but Day 21 isn't for another 12 hours technically... pictures whenever I can take them out and let them dry off. I'm sort of excited that they're dark chicks since the seller I bought them from had a picture of a black and orange EE that I'm in love with. I doubt I'll get one even close to the same color being mixes and all, but I guess I can still have hope. Isn't the front hen pretty? I love seeing all the different colors EEs turn out to be.
And my HAL eggs will go into lockdown this evening. They're currently in a turner and I never got an egg rack, just have egg cartons. Is it better to hatch them out in a carton? Or can I just take them out of the turner and lay them flat? They weren't shipped eggs so the air cells are good.
