6th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2015 Hatch-A-Long

[chickwhispers]

Saturday night live had an incubation skit last night!

If I had a Nest spresso I could join the Hatch-a-Long!

Yay!!

I want to see duckie pics soon!

I quickly pulled the backward one out and checked him. The vessels in the membrane are drying up nicely, but not quite there yet. Seems to be vigorous still and not in distress. So a bit of ointment on the membrane and back in the bator he went. He is one of those "accidental" LOxBA eggs.

She is so CUTE!

Houston, we have lift off!

How's your hatch going? I finally have a little one starting to zip and another pip! 2 more eggs to pip

I saw this on FB and had to share....how true!

That looks about right!

I still only have the one hatched out, the upside down one is close I think, and 7 more visible pips. I've seen a couple other others hopping around, but if they have pipped it is on the side I can't see. But they aren't actually due until tomorrow, so they got plenty of time to chill.

It sounds like you'll have one out and bouncing around the bator soon!

Awesome! Can't wait to see some fuzzie pics!

Sounds like you're going to have a pretty good hatch rate if they keep going at that rate

Hoping to see a duckie soon... it's been 12 hours since I woke up and saw the first 2 pips lol and I'm trying everything I can think of to stay away from the bator to make time go faster

Crazy chicken people

What's that make you?

 

[jrc85]

Got the bator now just gotta find some eggs in time to set them for this and that's being a challenge. Everyone is wanting $5-$8 an egg and unless they are guaranteed to hatch I'm not paying that lol

B4 I started hunting them I was finding them for $1-$3 an egg

Jrc85 if your not picky about breed what about farmers market or health food store eggs ( like the fertile ones Trader joes carries)
I've got some farmers market eggs at day 10 and going strong right now.
