7th Annual BYC New Year's Day 2016 Hatch-A-Long

Was so glad to read the post about it taking 46 hours from first to last hatch. I had 5 eggs under a broody: 2 have hatched and it's been over 24 hours. I candled the remaining 3 & 2 had a darker mass on one side but one seemed rather clear. I couldn't tell if there was any movement in either of the two darker ones. That was actually the first time I've candled & this is my first time hatching.

This was my longest hatch. I usually wait 24 hours after the last hatched chick to check the unhatched eggs. This time I opened the last 3 right after the last chick hatched.

Mama hatched 20 out of 21 eggs. One got squished. So she has got 19.
Had duck eggs in the incubator. ..36...give you a count on them and a picture tomorrow.
Wonderful! So adorable!

I am curious, when I went to your FB link, the page opened in landscape mode, using the full screen without the annoying crap on the sides. How did you do that? I have searching for something like that, but I can't find it.

One breed, the Arkansas Blues, hatche over three days!

They are crazy frustrating to hatch.
 
BTW, the 6th Svarthöna chick hatched today

After this last egg hatches, I have about 10 days to get my incubator fixed to hatch the next batch.
