I have 10 eggs shared by two broody silkies and they are suppose to hatch tomorrow at the earliest and Tuesday at the latest possibly.

I wish they would hatch!

I candled them a couple days ago and all of them are dark with the air cell at the wide end. And these pass several days have been soooo loooooooong I can't stand it!!!

I want little chickies running around.

These are first time moms that set at the exact same time and I'm worried sick that things won't go right... Please tell me that things will be ok.... I hope they do things right for first time moms.

I have a mix of bantam eggs, so the chicks will either be Golden Sebrights, White Silkies, or a mix of the two.

I hope things go well

I had 2 of my Silver Pheonix set on the same nest and eggs.. Only 3 hatched, (cold weather then) But both mommas ran around scratching and was like family..

So unless the chickens nature is different you should be good..
