2nd time hatching!!

[RodNTN]

Hi! I put 20 eggs in the incubator last night! This is my second time hatching, and I am so nervous and excited! They're from my own flock, so there is a big variety!

There are Easter Egger eggs in there, along with some White Leghorn eggs, Black Australorps, Light Brahmas, Buff Orpingtons, Black Sex links, Production Reds and New Hampshire Reds; and they'll all be mixed with either Ayam Cemani or Dominique.
I had been waiting for my Ayam Cemani pullet, "Blackberry" to lay an egg, and she did today! I popped it in today, my Ayam Cemani rooster is the only rooster that mates with her, so if it hatches it'll be an Ayam Cemani

I can't wait to see what they look like! Thanks for reading! Have a blessed evening!

My husband keeps trying to het me to hatch out more ducks!! Im avoiding hatching for a little while! So i will live through all the hathes on here and be jealous! ​

I know!! I'll keep y'all updated! I am not candling until day 7 though, I'll post pics when I do!
It's only day 1 and I have already caught myself with my nose pressed against the bator windows Okay! Let me know when you decide to hatch again

Hahah i was watching the bators everyday!!
It takes WAY TOO LONG for them to hatch!!

No gonna lie totally forgot i had a hen setting!!!
My bantam is sitting on eggs right now so im checking the eggs here and there... she will probably set 3 or 4 times this year. It is way easier when they take care of all the hard work lol but still takes WAY TO LONG!!! ​

Either way, we're gonna be waiting for 3 weeks

Sorry my internet went down 3 days ago and had to switch phone services to get service on it lol

It is so hard not to check them and candles them! It take FOREVER!!

She is a Partrage Cochin. She will go broody probably 3-4 times this year. This is her first set this year... she is a little late usually she has already hatched a set out. She is crazy!! But the best momma ever!! She is sitting on 4 eggs i believe and they are not her eggs. One might be.. But she robed a nesting box full of eggs.
I candles them last night and I think it's getting close. They are getting darker.. I have to get my egg candle out because I did it with a flash light and can't see 100%!
I will keep you updated!
