I think we stress ourselves out so much over these hatches and then when the "high" wears off our bodies just need to recoup. I remember my first hatch ever I didn't sleep for almost 2 days I was so excited. On the 3rd day I was so exhausted that I when I finally went to sleep I had several more chicks hatch. My daughter said that she came into my bedroom to tell me and I responded to her but to this day never remember doing so.

I told the girls at work that I had only slept about 6 or 7 hours in the past 72 hours... I've earned that Crazy Chicken Lady mug!!
