I couldn't see the pips until I candled.
Once I put the egg back down it was still hard to see the l
Pip just looking in to the bator.


I better go check again now.
It's been at least an hour.
I might as well just set up the camera now too so I don't have to keep getting up.

yeah very difficult when there’s not any!

I swear I was checking mine a million times a day to see if they’d made any progress. I’d see pips then check a million times to see if they’d hatched yet

Mine should hatch I think by Tuesday I have no freaking idea. That's what I get for not writing down dates when I add eggs

Hubby burned some white bark chocolate in the microwave while I was napping. Saw someone on the cooking channel adding nuts to popped corn and drizzling melted white chocolate on it.
The smell woke me up quickly and I ran to the kitchen!
"Did your feet smell it?" he asked.
"What!"
"Yeah, didn't you ever wonder why your feet smell and your nose runs?"
I had to chuckle, but now I've got to figure out how to get that smell out of the microwave.
Boiled lemon hasn't worked.
Neither has wiping down the inside with soapy water with bleach.
I'm trying leaving vinegar water in there overnight.

Set an open box of baking soda in it and leave it overnight.

This sounds like a good topic for its own thread.
