    The EggCam -- TAKE A LOOK - live monitoring!

    Okay, we did it... we cracked the egg today. Inside was a fully formed little brown chick. I think that perhaps the power outage was the death of it, because it looked completely normal and healthy. Sad. The good news is, I've set my 3 new ones in the incubator! I have the webcam up and...

    Thanks for the warm wishes -- I didn't realize I'd be so sad if I lost it! I'm going to open the egg tomorrow, and HOPEFULLY set the new three. HOWEVER, I spilled water in my incubator today when I moved it, and it doesn't seem to be working right! I really hope that I didn't ruin it. I...

    Sigh... I am so sad! I took the egg out and candled it today, and it appears to be a goner. There is a full-sized embryo inside, but it must've died late in development. The good news is, I have 3 new eggs that just arrived, ready to be placed in the incubator! Is it really sad to open a...

    Tiffany, The temp could've been a bit low on average... the classroom can be quite cool at times, and we DID candle a lot... how late of a hatch, I wonder?

    Oh, I'm so sad now! How much longer should I give the little guy?

    Is it okay to take it out and candle it this late? It won't hurt it?

    Okay, I'm here at school, and there is still NOTHING going on. I set the egg 3 weeks ago Monday, so is day 21 Tuesday or Monday? This is either day 22 or 23... I'm getting nervous. I shined a light up to it this morning and all I see is the dark embryo at the narrow end of the egg - nothing...

    I see the red lines, but I don't know what they are, either...

    Looks like the custodian's gone... and I don't have a mic, so maybe we are missing all the commentary!

    No, if it was 24, the egg would be whispering "There's not much time." LOL

    Okay, more drama... earlier, the kids WERE at lunch, but when I went by to check on things at around 12:45, they told me that the electricity went out for 30 minutes!!! Hopefully, my baby is okay! The way I set it up was by getting a cheap (pardon the pun) webpage set up through Yahoo...

    No... the kids are at lunch, and the gro-light that is nearby won't come on again until 4ish. I programmed it that way so I could see it at night. This should just be temporary!
