Figured while I am waiting for my shipped eggs to arrive at the PO I would start my hatch-a-long. I ordered 18 eggs so not sure how many she will send. I will update this post once They actually get here. BUT I should be getting............ 3 Lavender Orpingtons, 3 Caramel laced Chocolate Orpingtons, 3 Isabel Brahmas, 3 black golden laced blue brahma (covered by a blue brahma). Then some mystery blue eggs.

I may add in a couple of my girls eggs but not sure if they are fertilized or if they will do anything so won't post those until I candle and check for development.
 
Here is this list so far. Then I added 12 of my splash Cochin, splash project and blue frizzle project eggs. Those are more to see if they are fertilized.

I know I lost track of how long it's been can you tell me about your other chickens I would love to know about them!
I have lots. Lol

I have 8 that will be 2 in April
Itzy- blue Cochin Roo
Ditzy- blue Cochin hen
Annabelle - buff Cochin hen
Fajita- silver laced Cochin hen
Marshmallow - light brahma hen
Rosie- light brahma hen
Nugget- salmon Faverolles
Hummer- EE

Then I have 8 that will be a year in April (all hens)
Whiskey- blue rock
Malibu- buff brahma
Twisted- Salmon Faverolles (my broody)
Tequila - EE
Fireball-OE
Bourbon- crested cream legbar ( hasn't laid)
Hennessey- Sicilian buttercup
Crown- Sicilian buttercup

Then 4 that are almost 8 mo
Jameson- splash Cochin/EE Roo
Chardonnay- splash Cochin/EE hens
Bacardi- splash Cochin
Sapphire- blue frizzle Cochin/EE hen.

The Cochin/EE mixes are a project the breeder has been working on for 3 years. The look exactly like Cochins but can lay green eggs.
 
lockdown tomorrow. hoping when I candle I don't find anymore quitters. this has been one of my worst hatches since I found my good seller. :( And no don't blame her at all or the PO think 1 breed had just started up laying again so thinking the roo hadn't gotten his job done yet so those eggs weren't fertilized that was 4 eggs. then not sure on the single egg of 1 breed but that hen stopped laying/ went on break shortly after I got the egg so maybe she was gearing up to stop so again wasn't accepting the roo so not fertilized. Then the random not fertilized and so far 2 quitters. :(

got 18 eggs and down to 9 from my shipped eggs. Which is still good for shipped but that technically isn't even my "hatching %" since you don't count ones not fertilized. So 11 were fertilized now to see how many hatch.
