    I love seeing all of these sweet babies. Thanks to everyone for sharing their pics! My chicks are eight days old today. Time is already flying by. I ended up hatching 11 of the little fellas and had 5 more that did not hatch or pip.

    I agree PD-Riverman. I am leaving those little guys in there at least through tomorrow to give the rest time to hatch. Thank you!

    Good luck getting your hens! I am actually hoping for a little rooster in my bunch. I just lost our first rooster Little Red this week so hopeful that one of my new babies can take his place one day.

    My first three babies!!! Several more eggs had pips so hopefully their brothers and sisters will be with us by tomorrow morning! Once again, thank you, thank you to all of the kind words, support, and advice during the Hatch a Long. I have learned a great deal from all of you!

    Sending positive vibes your way as you wait on the remaining eggs to hatch. I have a Brinsea too (20 advance) and I wonder if the humidity pump would be a good investment. I wonder if that would keep the water filled up without opening top and risking the eggs.

    Day 20. Added a hot, wet sponge. Humidity has settled on 69%, so I'm hoping it will stay around there another couple of days! No pips yet. I'm glad I have to go teach school. If I was home all day I'd go stir crazy and check on them constantly! Come on chicks, work hard!!!

    No pips yet. Thanks for your advice! I'll try to stay calm and check the humidity again in the morning.

    Advice, please! I am on day 19 with a Brinsea 20 advance. The humidity has dropped to 60%. It is almost nine p.m. Here and I am afraid it will continue to drop overnight. I have a humidifier blowing toward the incubator. I am afraid to open the incubator to add more water! Do I chance it...
