The last 24 hours were just amazing for me. After 3 years of hatching shipped eggs with mixed results.....I hit a near 100% hatch today and want to crow about that!
Out of 18 eggs shipped to me in NYC during our horrific cold weather and snow storms this past month...I set them with my fingers crossed on 1/1/11. Who woulda thought? Not me when the weather hit like it did. But being in a new home I was eggcited bout starting my new flock so went for it.
I'd love to think that the combined efforts between myself and the wonderful breeder/shipper I purchased my eggs from.... did the job.

So keep the faith people, it happens when the planets all align and we all do what we are supposed to do.
Maybe????
I just know I am a happy chicky momma tonight for sure.
No matter how it came about.
Wishing you all awesome hatches and healthy peeps throughout this New Year.
