When you say you have pure americanas what exactly do you mean? Pure Ameraucanas? And if so you probably want to try to shoot for blue eggs, not green (or at least they look really green on my screen)

by true i mean they are not ee's and yes they can lay green eggs if you look at my pic they are the really dark green eggs, i say pure because nowadays alot of people call their chickens ameracanaus but they are really ee's but there are still some strains that have been bred down to be pure meaning not mixed with toher breeds it is rare but there are still some out there

no i put the eggs in near the end of the day. look at a calender that might help. i know this is going to sound newbish but dont eggs take around 24 days to hatch???

The standard time table for incubating chickens is 21 days, more or less, depending on temperature. You should stop turning on the 6th of Feb. and look for hatching around the 9th.

I put 6 eggs in GLC on the 18th (was midnight so just turned the 18th), mine should hatch around the 8th. Good luck on yours.
