I set my first ever on the 13th as well. A total of 11 and with the exception of one EExEE, the rest will be mutts. Hope it works out!

Oh wow, your very first hatch. I hope it all works out for you too. It's so addicting. Once you hatch a few, you just can't stop.

Good luck with your hatch too. Is this your first ever, or your first hatch of the season?
