I have some that are suppose to hatch today or tomorrow. I'm hoping for a few so my little one has a couple friends.

Today is hatch day for me too. I set the eggs at 2ish PM, so I don't expect them to do anything until after then. Hopefully I end up with some chicks since it seems like everyone is having such a hard time. fl.gif

Good luck everyone. Thinking fuzzy thoughts!!!

Today is day 23 for two of my eggs and day 22 for one, and day 21 for the other. Had a lot of rocking from one of my day 23 eggs so hopefully that little guy will hatch soon!!

Ohmy. It seems everything has gone wrong with this hatch. Just come out to check the babies and my light bulb blew. hmm.png temp was down to 72 so it had to have done it after 8 am this morning. Ugh. Babies are still moving though thank god!!

YIKES! Good thing nothing had hatched! That lightbulb would have been a grenade of glass :(

Still nothing going on with my eggs hmm.png I haven't noticed any rocking, but I'm not sure that I will anyway since I'm hatching in cartons this time. Can you still see them move in the cartons? I *think* I heard some scratching/tapping, but my bator is styrofoam, so the sound I heard could've been my frizzy hair brushing against the incubator gig.gif
Guess I'll have to wait and see what tomorrow brings, bummer sad.png

So I went to do a quick candle of the eggs that are suppose to hatch today. And as I was checking them I found one pipping!! So far some of them look okay. But with the luck I've been having I will just be happy if any more hatch.
