Setting eggs 3/15/14 - Who is with me?

Date sort Score sort
I did a last-minute-before-lockdown candling of some of my swedish flower hen eggs last night (yesterday was actually Day 19, but I had deliberately delayed lockdown by a day). I was checking for adequate dip down of the air cells, but going that several had already internally pipped!!! I was NOT expecting that yet... Because of the few I saw, I did not candle all 33 since I didn't want to screw up any of the internal pippers. Today is Day 20, and I have DH on watch duty since I'll be home late tonight - but I'm hoping they don't actually hatch until tomorrow though because I'll be home most of that day. Fun stuff!!!

Darn, it would have been nice to come home to a pip. I guess they are going to make me wait, haven't heard any peeping yet.

yippeee!! seeing the internal pip is SO cool!
I like to wait for internal pip too.. once I see the i.pip then I increase humidity. up until that point, they are still losing water weight / evaporating. day 19 here... soo anxious..
 
My incubator got to 117 so all of my 80 eggs are dead, its a shame because it was day 19
