Anyone hatching around July 7th and 12th?

[BlueMottie]

Anyone available to be a hatching buddy with me? I have about four eggs hatching around the 7th. Haha, not many, but still.
And then like ten eggs between now and then. I was not smart and forgot to write the date on the eggs...or maybe the pencil just smudged off.

And then about five more eggs hatching on the 12th.
So like, 20 eggs total

Maybe we could swap photos of our chickeypoos as they're hatching or when they're all fluffy and dried off?

I am so excited!

I have 6 due to hatch on the 7th/8th. I actually have 8 in the bator but I'm pretty sure that 2 are no good. This is my first attempt at hatching and I'm using a homemade bator. The eggs I won here on BYC and they shipped all the way from Utah. I'm kinda excited.

Yea I have my $100.00 eggs hatching on the 7th, at least I hope they hatch.

Hi gamebirdsonly, the eggs I'm hatching are some of what I got from you. Thanks again. Some of them a friend is trying to hatch too 'cause they had a broody without any eggs. What type of eggs are you both hatching?

Bantam Welsummers

Two of the "unknown date" eggs are pipping today...no idea if they're cochin or wyandottes, but my money is on cochins for now.

Guess I'll find out

Good luck everyone

If they are not due until the 7th are they hatching early or are you just off a little on your date. I'm just wondering so I know if I need to be looking for anything with my eggs. ....Oops, nevermind you did say unknown date eggs.

Yep. Some were put in an estimated three weeks ago, and the date was either never put on or rubbed off.

That would be a freaky chick if it were only 16 days along and started hatching.

I have 15 hatching on/around 11th. Its a batch of Dominique and Australorp. Then I have 14 Ameraucana eggs with 1 Cuckoo/Blue egg from Dipsy Doodle Doo that I bought here on BYC that suppose to hatch on/around the 20th. These are my first eggs/chicks so I'm really excitied.

I have my marans due the 8/9th and the silkies and sizzles due the week after.

Then that's it, I don't set after July 1 and won't again until it starts to cool in fall. In our region late June/post July hatches don't go as well, or grow as well. So I try not to, if these were not replacement eggs for bad shipping/hatches even these wouldn't be hatching this late.

I've got one broody on eggs who should hatch hers next week as well. After that I won't allow a broody over summer either.
