Awesome!!! U never know so make sure you keep your nose pressed to the glass, just in case I loved my first hatch, we watched the bator for HOURS hahaha

4 of 6 IBs out so far, 3 of 3 Bantam AM/IB, 1 of 2 OE pipping That's the current status so far. Not bad, even if the others never pip. The largest eggs are left, so thinking they are just a little behind. We'll see.

Congrats to all your beautiful babies!!!!!!!

It's like you are PSYCHIC or something! I JUST checked this half an hour ago.... and NOTHING... now I hear peeping and am SO excited!

LOL It's just funny how that happens!

Sitting over the bator in anticipation watching

Mine sat like this anywhere from 2-12 hrs! Hope yours comes fast!

Howdy fellow Canandian! Congrats on the first out and more to come! I have 2 marans out now and 3 Ameraucana X's. Three more are pipped, and a few with no action yet. I'm hopeful on hatching all 13!

Out to feed the big chickens and horses now! Back in a bit

Guess I need to find out about worst hatch rate contest too. Out of 28 eggs only 3 ended up in lockdown and still not a single bit of activity!

I think I'm going to go cry

 

[RavenWood]

I have a BCM hatchling that is still attached and dragging half of his shell by his backside. Is there anything I should do or will this fix itself in time? I'm just worried he'll herniate something.
