I too rushed home to check the eggs &......... nothing! Ugh.....I had no idea how much I'd be worrying about eggs!! Tmrw is day 21, I might have a heart attack by then....
Finally got them into lock down although it took the better part of the day. Was going to use egg cartons but was having trouble getting the humidity to regulate with them in so I removed them and put the eggs on the floor and now it's all good. Temp is stable and humidity is bumped to 68 now we just sit and wait.
I just put 3 more groups down today. have one should be hatching any day now heard chripping but no pips when i put the others in the hatcher. next group is the 26th to go down. i have one bator full and the other has a tray and 1/2 open.
#13 has just arrived! I see beak in 14,15,& 16, beginnings of a zip in 17. Wow, this hatch is going way better than I thought it would! I set 19 total, 17 made it to lockdown. Who would have thought a first hatch in a little giant? Not me!
Today is day 19 and I have a rocker! I'm used to seeing rockers and pippers on day 18/19 for Bantams, but this is my first time hatching LF in the incubator.
