I'm now down to 5 Australorp eggs left, and I go into lock-down on Friday.

Can I be added to the list even though my hatch date is May 6th? I have chicken eggs.

Question I have 4 Bantam eggs that I think are going to hatch on the 18 day but I see feathers growing and not sure when they are going to hatch

What makes you think that seeing feathers mean they won't hatch?

When Will they hatch or should hatch

When Will they hatch or should hatch

my last hatch had bantams and standard fowl in the same incubator. my experience is that they may hatch a shade early, but generally still observe the 21 incubation period. I had 3 silver laced polish bantys hatch around day 20. They are feathering out in the shell earlier than that. I did an "egg-topsy" on a day 12-13 death and it had started feathering. Just give them time and try to relax. (i know that is the hardest---i'm a totally OCD hatcher!!!)

I don't see why not. You're only a day late for Cinco-de-Mayo. Mine are due on the 3rd, and they said that I could.
