11th Annual Easter Hatch a Long 2020

I've got internal pips! And holding them to my ear, they are tapping.

Day 19 is the longest day. Last time I heard internal pips at day 20 so I’m hoping to hear the same tomorrow. I’m so impatient. I think next time I need to run two incubators with different hatch dates so I have something to do like candle or weigh eggs instead of just sitting here staring at day 19 eggs

There is nothing worse to me than waking up with a tick crawling on me because I cannot get back to bed. I feel like they're crawling on me all night after I find one

I tried to let my dog sleep with me once. Didn't work out. The experiment lasted maybe five minutes... probably less. I have no idea how people do it.

Due to work, my husband and I lived in two different states for a few months so he let our dog sleep with him. He was both an outside and indoor dog at the time. When I came to visit he still slept with us and I got eaten by fleas!! After I was done with work and moved in permanently and had kids, I said no more dogs in my bed. My dog has since chosen to live outdoors forever. But yeah, no pets in my house except hatching eggs and one-day-old chicks, after that they go outside.

@hysop, when you are online, the green dot makes it look like your little piggy has a modesty filter added...

That made me laugh so hard. I had to switch my phone to landscape view to see what you meant, but you are absolutely correct

We have two dogs and a cat that sleep in the bed. The cat and the beagle sleep on my side. They are my security blanket. I can't sleep without them.

It doesn't help...I'm staring at 3 incubators with 2 different hatch dates that are all on lockdown. I think it might actually be worse because I was getting really good at ignoring my lockdown incubators until day 20...lol, Now I'm looking at all 3 because 1 incubator is on day 20. NOTHING! NOTHING from any of them!

I’ll be honest... every 30 minutes I keep running to the incubator and peering in the little window... I have no control
patience does not work with me!
