This year I thought I would try starting my first hatch-a-long. You're welcome to choose an egg to root for.

If you'd also like to name your egg, I have naming themes that should be followed. This year the themes are:
Silkies: Greek mythology and Percy Jackson related names.
Project chicks: Anything starting with the letter A. (This can be anything – flowers, human names, etc.)

I can't guarantee that I'll be able to tell the chicks apart at hatch. If you do think of a name that follows the given theme, I will be sure to give a chick that name if your chosen egg hatches.

I've got 22 silkie eggs from my black, white, and paint silkies. They're from young pullets, so I have no idea how well they'll be fertilized.
Then I have 9 project eggs. What will come out of those is a bit of a mystery. They'll most likely be penciled or patterned with crests, some may be lavender, some will have light skin and some will have dark skin. There's a lot more that they may or may not inherit from the parents. I just really hope they won't be silked.

Together there are 31 eggs due to hatch on March 2nd.

P23 is the only egg from my isabel brahma bantam, Zombie.

S14 please! my fav number and hatch date is the day after my birthday :)
I think Aether is a cute name

suggestions for others: athena, apollo, artemis, ares, aura, achilles, amphitrite, aeolus, astraea, ariadne, arachne, annabeth

i misread it oops. For a general greek myth/pjo name, id love to see a hades or persephone, or a faun maybe

Sure! Just to clarify, which name are you choosing then?
