Anyone Hatching on the 4th?

[hippichick]

Put 12 eggs into the hatching tray this morning. They were supposed to go in last night, but I still had some hatching from my last hatch. I candled, and kept 4 of my BBS Orps from Miss Prissy, tossed 6 that were clear. Darn PO. The 4 that I kept have air cells that I can see, so I'm hoping for at least maybe a couple to make it.

I also have 8 assorted of my Partridge and White Silkies, D'Uccles, and Sebrights. Man, I'm going to have more Sebrights than I'll know what to do with! I had a bunch hatch the past few days. Anything happening with anyone yet??

I don't see anything yet. Yesterday I upped my humidity. It took me a while to keep the temperature steady while getting that humidity up. Nothing new this morning. I am starting to feel anxious. Today is Day 19.

How is everyone's eggs doing this evening?

Nothing new here to report. My day has included me checking the incubator at least 25 times. I even shinned a flashlight in there to be sure I wasn't missing anything. I have peeped at the eggs. I have sang to them. Nothing going on........

Nothing here. But tomorrow is day 20, so I'm sure my Sebrights will start up. The Orps, I know won't be early. They like to make you wait.

I'm just hoping they hatch at all.

They can wait till day 25, as long as they hatch. lol

Boy, that is early. Are the Ameraucana bantam or large fowl. I know my bantam breeds always hatch before my large fowl. Congrats on them!
