My hatch for this week has finished. 7 out of 8 eggs shipped from Fla to VA in 30* temps hatched, 3 last night and 4 today. BBS Orpingtons.
Somebody help me I have a hatching addiction.

So much fluffy cuteness!!

Congrats on your successful hatch.

I didn't expect veining so early! Did I mention they are grocery store eggs!!!!!

I can't get pictures to post either

Seven out of eight on shipped eggs? Awesome! I would be thrilled to get two out of my seven I set!

Congratulations! Oh, how I wish little human babies could be hatched like chicken eggs, my heart's wish of becoming a mom would've been granted long ago if that was the case... Imagine 9 months of willing an egg to hatch though, and candling to see development!

I agree it would be nice to "hatch" a baby in less than a month.

Just set my quail eggs. 112 eggs. Good luck everyone!

I know this is why I'm addicted to chickens, I don't want to be a "empty nester" lol

I was looking for people who were hatching quail. Yay! Quail chicks are so cute and tiny. That's lots of eggs! Good luck with your hatch. Be sure to post pics

Well I am amongst the ones who candled early, weird too as I never candle before day ten. But I said what the hay since I want to see if my new dUccle eggs were fertile, and YES they are I saw the little spider and it is a first, I've never seen it on my own eggs

I bought new batteries today and decided to candle too. The Cream Legbar X Crele Pene Olive colored eggs are so hard to see into!

Something is going on in there though.....
