Anyone going to have eggs hatch in novemeber?

[TMNfarm]

I "candled" a few of Prim's eggs last night with my cell phone flashlight inside of my jacket and I can see veining! Is it possible to see movement in a 5-6 day old egg? I thought I did, but maybe I was just hoping....

Anyway, I'm hopeful that the cooling off didn't kill them... I dreamt about the eggs hatching last night. All the chicks were little silver and black cuties!! I think I'm obsessed and spend a bit too much time at BYC,

I have OCD.... Obsessive Chicken Disorder!

I could see what looked like pulsing from a small dark speck in the middle of the veins around then. A few days later the speck was bigger and jumping all over.

Yeah I think I have that too!
Mine are officially at 7 days to the minute now! Just thought I'd share that... 14 days to go...

Next week this time I'll start collecting the 2nd batch...

I think we all have obsessive chicken disorder.
And some of us are addicted to incubating eggs. I know I am. I am lucky, even though I live in the city they passed an ordinance that we can own 10 hens. Then my mom lives an hour and a half away and has a large property in the country.
If I add to many hens I have to buy her more kennel panels to expand her chicken pen. But other then that I can give her as many as I can hatch

I want someday to have a rooster and let my chickens go broody.

When I did my first hatch I really just wanted my Wellies but threw in some bantyX LF Buff Orpingtons. When they hatched I posted on a local sale page on FB to sell them at $3 each. They were all 13 spoken for in less than 20 min. So that encourages me that I will probably have a market for excess chicks almost any time. (No agriculture in my area and few people hatch their own chicks)

My eggs should be due the 29th of November. I barely make the November hatch lol. I also plan to have some due on Dec 25th or Jan 1st. Haven't decided which yet. Below are the ones I decided to put in the incubator. The darkest are MaransXEE so hopefully I'll get some Olive Egger hens out of the mix. The dozen on the lower right are actually blue. Its a shame they look nearly white in this picture.
