Quote: I know how you feel. I put 42 eggs in the incubator a few days ago as well. Not to mention the 25 chicks brooding in the garage. I am not sure what I was thinking at the time but oh well. They could be hatching any day now... I think this is day 20 ish.

I have not candeled there so I have no idea if they are any good or not. A few more days and I should find out.

<3 N.C Chicken Chick <3 : When mine went broody I would take her off the nest 2 times a day of 10 or so minutes. If she broodie poops on your eggs you will take her out for a break too. Giant poo smells like I am so not looking forward to the giant broody poop. And she must have heard me...

Day 18 I think. I am expecting that if any hatch it will be a late hatch. The first hen would get up a few time a day and stay out for what I feel is a little too long. The new white mama is stayin gout and not getting up at all. I tried coaxing her out to eat and drink.. But she is a big...

<3 N.C Chicken Chick <3 : Is your hour count down for the begining your hatch ?? I marked it on the calander. Wait I'am confused??? 72 hours till they hatch? or 432? 432 more till they hatch. My two silkie girls still have not even attempted sitting. Good thing they are cute. I have no...

72 hours now.... 432 more to go.

48 hours now... nothing like torturing my self with an hour count down.

<3 N.C Chicken Chick <3 : I can't get my hen to STOP being broody. (their silkies) My two silkie hens have not gone broody since they came here. But maybe this spring... who knows. They are cute little things so they get to stay anyways :-)

I have another that has gone broody. She sat for almost 2 days so today I took her off the fake bad eggs. Talk about a fight, a pair of welding gloves and 2 sticks later I placed 6 new eggs under her. Each marked with an X on one side an O on the other. I will start the count down...
