Yes, all the chicks that I saw who came out of the blue/green eggs have dark legs. Here's a picture of a small group of them. (The one in the middle I believe was out of a brown egg, so either my Brown Bovan Hen or my Silver Laced Wyandotte.)
Everyone decided to hatch last night while we were in town. Mom said one popped out of the shell while she was watching. Here are my final numbers:
Eggs set: 17
same went into lockdown (I didn't candle. This is my first time incubating eggs.)
Eggs hatched: 13
Of the four that didn't hatch...
One more hatched so I'm up to 4/17 with several large pips and one that still is almost out. This is another one from our neighbor's birds. I'll have to visit her tomorrow and let her know that for my first try hatching chickens that we're doing well. :)
Of the 17 eggs, woke up to two chicks hatched (a fluffy yellow from a neighbor's welsummer/buff orphpington flock, and one very dark one with dark legs from one of our blue eggs). So far today I have one more hatch (olive egg), one that looks like it's almost out and several external pips. Very...
As of this morning, no pips or anything. But I'm afraid I may have messed up. My temp was a bit on the low side for the first five days. But they were fresh eggs, so I'm hoping it may just take another day or so to hatch.
I have 15 eggs in the incubator.
6 are from my neighbor and are buff orphington/wellsummer
The other 7 are from my own and are a EE roo and hens who are either EE, Silver Laced Wyandotte, or Bovan.
I'm in the Ozarks down on the MO/AR border (got family in Iowa, moved down here 3 years ago). I'm going to set some EE Cross. Mr. Kazoo, my roo, is an EE and his ladies are either brown bovan, EE or silver-laced wyandotte.
