Ok, so one of my little guys is way different (black and yellow with feathers on the leg) than the other and I am pretty sure he is not a Lavender Orpington. I ordered lavender eggs, is that something I should email and complain about it is Lavender one that doesn't always breed true so not...

I set 8 shipped lavender Orpington eggs, 3 showed movement at lockdown. So far I have 2 babies and one pip that's been trying to zip all day. It's beak is sticking out of the hole and I can see it breathing. It started piping lengthwise at first, so I'm going to give it the night and and see if...

Also any help identifying these pullets would be appreciated

So I candles today(day 10) and saw three babies moving!! But the air cells are crazy weird. Here are some pics!. [/IMG] [/IMG]

OK, so i did some reading and i decided to put my eggs more upright since most of the air cells move so must be detached. I took some pictures so if someone more experienced could let me know if they look about normal for 5 days or if they are likely not developing that would help my anxiousness...

I set 8 shipped Lavender Orpington eggs on Sunday instead of Saturday, so a hatch date of Easter Day. I have candled them a couple times using a flashlight and I don't see anything hopeful as far as veins yet and I cant really decipher an air cell in most of them :( I have waited a long time to...
