Yay!

I can’t quite see what’s going on in that photo, but I’ll take your word for it!

Time to put it back in the bator and sit on your hands?

It’ll be my turn to get that excited in 9 days or so

IT JUST PEEPED. Y'ALL.

I was walking back into the living room after stealing a Hershey's Kiss (or 3) and I heard it peep!!

 

[topochico225]

It's peeping!! Heading to bed, will post updates in the morning. Hoping for an external pip tomorrow

 

[topochico225]

Okay, still no external pip, but it's chirping a LOT and wobbling. Currently playing it baby chick noises on loop I candled it one last time and the tip of the beak was pressed up on the shell a little, so hopefully it'll be soon!

PEOPLE she pipped!!!!!! I held the egg to my ear to make sure it was still alive, and I HEARD it pip!!

Pic is hard to see, but it's definitely there!

Also, unfortunately, the Mille Fleur d'Ugly eggs did not develop. I chucked them this morning.

Oh well, next time for the d’uccles i guess

How humid is it over there? I always read advice about not removing the egg from the incubator/ opening the incubator after external pip because it may cause shrink wrapping.

It's like 60% humidity in my house thanks, Louisiana. I put it back in the bator right after it pipped.

i do it all the time before pip, after pip, zipping...but of course I don’t tell other people they should do it as well since their conditions is likely to differ vastly from mine, haha
