Anyone else expecting chicks around 10/06?

The hatch date for my 6 Silkie eggs was October 6th, but I unknowingly unplugged the incubator for one whole night in order to plug in a brooder lamp for my Orpington chicks

I feel like such an idiot

I have 3 left out of the eggs I set that are now in Lockdown. 2 more days left until 21 days and I am SO excited! <3 I'm so anxious waiting to see them pip or do something! It's hard to believe they even fit in those tiny eggs! I also have some other eggs set that are due to hatch a week later than these

OK went to lockdown this morning. Holding my breath as I'm not sure of all the eggs; can't see into the Welsummers at all except I can see the aircell, otherwise dark blobs. But, none of them stink, so figure still have a chance.

woot! Came home from work with at least four pips, a couple more eggs are rocking and I can hear peeping once in awhile! No wonder folks find this addictive! I'm soooo excited!
