It's not my computer.  Lot's of people have been reporting trouble since Thursday.  Most people aren't having trouble.  I've seen this before on other forums, I've never been one of the affected people before and now I can see how frustrating it is.

Well, I have another chick out! It's such a cute little bugger too. It reminds me of an OEGB.

Wisher, I'm glad the problem was sorted out and you can post now!

Grrrr, I wasn't quite ready to give up my addiction yet.......................

That has to be frustrating, and many usually posting seem to be missing today, so I'm guessing it is a wide spread problem.

Still no pips.  I couldn't have killed them all.....  by NOT candling them, right? 

My hatch date is tomorrow, and I have often had late hatches anyway.  I know the temperature in the "office/Nursery/Incubation/Guest" room isn't stable, and we did have some pretty cold snaps.  Plus I go in and out my new door onto the deck fairly often.  Whatever.

for you. My hatch is over. 2 dead in the shell (one was my iowa blue from Jim ), 23 hatched and alive. Had to help the last one out just now.

Then I get to clean the bator and shove turkeys in it!!! WAHOOO!

I set 15 EO Basque Hen egg. 13 made it to lockdown with one questionable.  9 have hatched so far and I have 2 pips working on getting out.

First three in Brooder

Don't forget to check out post #1 and the contest page. There's still some contests open and a few new ones opened today. 

When your hatch is COMPLETELY OVER fill out the FORM.  The number of eggs you set is the original amount in your incubator on day 1. The number of chicks hatched is obviously the number of alive chicks that came out of those eggs set on or around St. Patrick's Day.

Make sure to fill out the form when you're done with your hatch - remember that awesome prize of the Brinsea incubator? We need everyone who hatched to contribute with their numbers so we can award the person with the closest guess of HOW MANY CHICKS WILL WE HATCH ON EASTER with their new incubator!

It is a known issue and Nifty is working to try to get it fixed.

9 seems to be my magic number lately.  My last 3 successful hatches have been 9 live chicks/keets.  Here are my Easter babies.
