Nope. Appear to be chickens. Chicken Rancher assured me chickens. From the chart above, 3 are on day 28.

So, assume they were fresh. Assume they hadn't developed before being stuck under the hen. Assume I know what I am doing (big stretch, ain't it Batty?).

Today is 26th - 9th = 17 days under the hen. Still should be 4 days. We have had a high heat and broody stayed on the nest. Good momma.

I'd guess that they had already started development before set, because that is insanely early if that's really when they were set. I'm pretty sure any temp high enough to cause such a fast hatch would be high enough to hardboil them too!

I've seen internals on very late day 17 bantam eggs in an incubator that ran rather hot, but that's the earliest ever.

lol my favorite thing about my Pekingese is how independent she is. Very catlike. She wants to play and get pets on occasion but as soon as that's over she scoots over completely away from me and lays down. Neither of us are cuddlers and I like it that way.

Ditto with my dog. I tolerate her because she isn't so needy like the other foster dogs. Any dog that thinks it's fun to stand by your side when you're reading a book and bark non stop is going to get cussed out and put outside!

I think I got used to the nosiness of a pug. They want to be everywhere you are and know everything your doing. You can't bring a bag into the house or shut a door without them being right there wanting to know what's going on.

When I was younger my min pin Sadie slept with me every night. I had her until she was 18 so she actually knew my kids before she passed. But yeah I get it, I just don't like anymore. I've gotten to where I just want my space.

I am with jw on this one. I already have to fight a DH for space, I am not adding the dog to the mix. She is an even bigger space hog than DH!

Me too. She's probably some loosely bred feist type meant forView attachment 1516555 squirrel hunting but I got her from a shelter. I feel like a bad doggy mom that I never introduced you all to my other dog Tallulah. I know I've mentioned her but I'm not sure you've had the pleasure of seeing this pretty face.

Sweet face!
