I requested - and got approval! - for a special day off AFTER the day my broody hen was due to hatch her chicks. Then, when I had my first incubator hatching, I asked for another day off for that scheduled hatch date... but was only allowed the afternoon off (there was stuff that did need to get done). Came home to two pips, 1 zipped egg, and got to watch the rest of 'em hatch. Of course, it was a Friday, and the hatch lasted into the weekend, so that was cool.
I have two eggs pipped right now, and have to go to work tomorrow. Today is my every-other-Monday off. Luckily, I now know those eggs don't really need me to fog up the outside of the 'bator for hours at a time.....
Your have had a phenomenal hatch! Congrats!!
