I don't know how many people saw my post 21 days ago. A neighbors dog got in my Silkie pen and killed all but one hen. So I ordered an incubator off Amazon, grabbed my fridge eggs (Silkie eggs I had planned on eating) and asked if they were fertile based on one I cracked. Well .... here you go! I have one that pipped at 18 days and hatched at 20 days. And one that pipped at 19 days and hatched at 20 days. And the remaining Silkie eggs have pipped. I also put my one Welsummers egg in there (also killed in the attack - stress - next day) and some Easter Eggers (one of my EEs was also killed). But two silkies so far! Gorgeous!
