Anyone setting eggs starting July 15 -July 22?

Good luck! I actually think they are supposed to pip the big end, but I think they can hatch from either???




 Congrats!!! Day 19!!! WOW:yiipchick
Fro m the few  i had pip ... it should  be the large end.But if you heard it chirp it must be in an air cell or it couldnt,.
Someone more knowlegable than me will have to tell you if theres a problem with that end.

Thanks. I hope it will be okay.
 
I am on day 21 for my silkies and day 20 for 28 barnyard beauties so I will be here for a few more days too ;)

ETA Overnight I had my White silkie, a polish and a barnyard beauty from a huge blue egg hatch...I had to assist the blue egg, he had been pipped for 1 1/2 days and the hole was BIG. I could see he was very shrink wrapped. I broke shell of to make a bigger hole and qtipped warm water all inside edges and wrapped a warm paper towel. There was so many vessels low in the shell I was going to re look today. Little bugger got himself out! Glad cause I was not looking forward to that stress, lol!
