Silkie4, I am kind of facing the same wall. I bought 4 dozen chicken eggs and 4 turkey eggs all together. I set them all together, but the turks need 28 days versus 21 for the chicks. I set the turkey eggs up higher in paper egg cartons in hopes that once the chicks hatch they won't be able to...

Congratulations to everyone for their new babies. What a great thread this has been.

Best of luck everyone. I had so much fun with mine, and I'm barely gonna have time to clean my bator good before I set again. My next eggs should arrive tomorrow. Anybody else resetting?

Nice! I'm lovin' all these fuzzy butt pics! Is that RIR?

Wow!! very awesome! I got worried about ya'll back in the beginning, and I even went and hunted you down. When I didn't hear anything further I assumed the worst. So great to hear the process worked! I'm proud for you! I bet that will be yet another very treasured chicken! And hopefully you...

Wow 2hot! what a story... I bet if those little ones do hatch you'll have a hard time treating them like chickens! It's pretty neat that the oeg's took the post office abuse and the temp spike. LOL... I bet them things will be mean as little hornets about summer time! They're already cocky! I...

Wow! Sounds like a great hatch so far. I'm excited over mine. I've got pips all over the place. Tomorrow should be great for cam watching!

Here are my first two!

I have 2 out. I EE and 1 cochin. 8 more pipped.

try now. The one that is pipping is one of the ones in the upper right side of the screen. If you find the two big green eggs, it's 2 down, picture a " Y ", it would be the bottom of it.

I just heard my first cheeping coming from them!

I've got a pip!

couldn't take it anymore, so I opened up and tore the shade off the night light. Shot some water on the sponge and I got the humidity holding at 60 for the moment. It makes it hard to see on the webcam, but easier for me to see here. All my eggs have the nice little high humidity glow to them...

I've read that once they absorb the yolk and hatch out, that gives them what they need for 3 days. You should be plenty fine to go to work tomorrow and not worry over your babies. Maybe by the time you get home, everybody else will be caught up. Congratulations on your hatched, and good luck on...

Day 19 is almost in the books for me. I didn't see any wobbling or anything, but I usually never do, and this time I've had so much background noise going on I really haven't had much time to watch the incubator. If it weren't for the web cam viewing from work, I say I seemed almost...

LOCKDOWN!!!.......

some people say keep it going till day 25. I've never done it though. It was fun getting to watch that first one of yours hatch. It was literally within the first five minutes I was out of bed. I had been following the pip Friday night, so I went to the computer immediately to see if it had...

I'll be joining you this evening. So what all did you have make it to lockdown again? I'll have 21 bantam cochins and 11 EE mixed.

I've always just done it at some point in the day when I felt ready to candle them all and get it all right. I've never had any hatch before the 21rst day. But I've also never had stable temps.

I just woke up and logged on to your cam page and within a minute and a half got to see that first one hatch. Very exciting. Is that G/LM at the bottom pipped?
