Quick! What do you guys think... Should I put the 8 or 10 eggs left and put them under the broody that adopted my first two? Or should I leave them alone in the bator??

Oh and congrats all of you with your cute and oh-so-fine littles! They are proof that G*d loves us and wants us to be happy!

Leave them in the bator. If she has chicks, she might not sit on the eggs long enough for them to hatch.

I have my first pip! It's a bantam Faverolles.

Three hatched. I was hoping for four out of the seven, but I think the fourth was questionable. My brooder lamps either don't work (they did earlier) or both the bulbs I have are toast.

Snowing tonight and the stores are closed. They're also 25 miles away, making it treacherous. I dusted off the hovabator (literally) and fired it up. They're in that.

Hooray!!

In the 'bator they will stay thanks ladies!

Up to 7 quail, and just now a chick--- my own silchin x appenzeller.

What a difference two hours makes.... I have a pip and peeping!

(As predicted, a Salmon Faverolle egg...the one which at the last candling was bumping the membrane to the air cell with its head, so not really a surprise)

Hooray...

But Dang! I was hoping for a shot at the NYD apres midnight hatch. (I am, like, so counter "Open! Open! Open!"... More like "Whoa Nellie!") Nonetheless, it's a welcomed and eggciting event. Maybe will have a little stumbler in the bator tomorrow morning..... Which is even better than a good cup of coffee to start your day!
