I'd also like to say thanks for that video. I'm surprised at how easy it is to tell the sex at only one month.
Looks like my final numbers are 7 TJ, 2 homegrown hens, and 1 Clark's Nutrition Store. But they all look just alike so I can't tell them apart.
Oh my! I first read that and thought "Boy have I got a lot to learn. She could tell all that just by candling an egg?" But then I read it again and figured it out. Maybe some kind of senior moment
First TJ hatched Monday. I have 9 eggs hatched so far but 2 are from my hens. One of the eggs from Clark's Nutrition store has pipped. I really hope it makes it since those are brown eggs and I'm curious what the hens are.
Bummer, I missed the Valentine HAL because I am hatching a batch of Trader Joe eggs . Oh well, I should remember the Easter one because set day is my birthday. And such a great way to celebrate!
I have 21 eggs that made it to lock down: 15 from Trader Joe, 2 from Clark's and 4 from my hens. Started out with 2 dozen TJ and 1 dozen Clark's Nutrition store.
My 4 year-old granddaughter is visiting and came and said "Grandma the light is off can I turn it on?" Of course I said yes...
Hmmm. Today I went to the same Clark's and to the same Trader Joe's that I bought my eggs from that I am now incubating. But neither one of them had any fertile eggs. Thought that was a little strange.
We have more contest winners. Congratulations to all the winners. I never knew hatching with others would be so much fun. Really enjoyed reading these each day. Looking forward to the next one. @Amberjem wins best hatch a long participant! @blackgoat had the farthest shipped egg that hatched...
Yes mine were clearly marked on the carton. Big letters right in the middle said "fertile eggs". On the ones from the other store it was in the upper left hand corner.
Thank you! It should be interesting anyway. I hope my hatch is as good as your TJ hatch. Everyone thinks I am crazy for trying to hatch supermarket eggs.
