Sekinkead - super cute babies!

MTtroutwithwings - congratulations on the two babies and the pips!!! You have a long day ahead of you, but it is soooo worth it.

Hi everyone, quick update. We have 7 hatched, one pipped, one partially hatched and three still quiet. I candled them though and they're still real active just not ready to enter the world, maybe tomorrow. I'm not worried. I'll get some pics tomorrow for everyone. They're cute but all yellow with just little specks of black here & there which look more like dirt then signs of any pattern.

Well again I stand corrected.... two of the last three that were quiet have now pipped!

Oh, and the partial hatch is completely hatched now too!

We just wrapped of our "Christmas movie night" with the kids, put them to bed and checked the bator, another one hatched (#9) and the last egg pipped! If the last three finish hatching w/o incident, I'm 12 for 12!

I suppose though I shouldn't count my chickens before they finish they're hatch?

That is great! Congrats on the hatch! Are they hatching on day 21 or later then that?

 

[MTtroutwithwings]

Good morning all, we are 12 for 12!!!!

I awoke this morning to the last 2 hatchlings. To answer Imagesoart question here is a recap of the event...
They started pipping on day 21 (Friday) first two hatched early morning Sat. (day 22) then 8 more hatched thru out the day, last one just around midnight and the last two finished hatching early this morning (Sun) on day 23.

Temp was between 99 - 102 the humidity stayed around 75%, both would fluctuate up & down when a chick would hatch or I'd open the bator to remove hatched shell and/or chicks. Eggs were cue balled around during the hatch, I'd just regroup them back into their center clutch. I included this information to help all the newbies with hatching their eggs in the future.

Now time to warm up the camera and send pics but after I do breakfast for my family (in our house & coop!)

Well I've taken a few pics but it's been awhile since I've loaded pics from photobucket to the BYC forum. It's changed since the time I did it so as soon as I figure it out I'll have pics for everyone! (I'm getting old & senile)
