Keep us posted. My batch would pip, zip, and pop out so quickly I never got to watch any of them hatch except the last one.

Quite the opposite here!

I still have 4 pips, and one of them is sorta starting to zip. It is really gonna be a long night!

Mine piped the day before yesterday and did nothing for about 18 hours then they all popped out within a few hours.Maybe this is just the calm before the storm.

Well, I am up to 6 pips. Nothing further yet. Maybe they are waiting, so they can all come out at the same time!

You need some more broodies, Kathy! I'm waiting for one of my usual girls to get the urge this month so I can keep that bator in the bsmt for the rest of the year.

Funny you mention that! I DO have one! One little buff silkie has been sitting for about a week now. Today I opted to let her be. Heck, it is too much trouble to try to break her in the winter! So, there she sits!

6 pips plus 1 zipping and nearly ready to pop. Whew, this is nerve wracking every time, when I get to this point!

I gotta go get some sleep!

 

[Chipper]

Glad to hear you have one almost out Kathy.

Make sure you get some sleep.

 

[kathyinmo]

Awwww, shoot, I can't go to sleep now... (and I am very sleepy)

6 of the 10 Buckeyes did pip, and of those 6; 3 are almost finished zipping.
Two of the pips are Turkens
