Anyone with hatch date Oct 15-25?!? Check out this thread!

I'm trying. Be patient, be patient, be patient..........I can do it.

This isn't even my first hatch. Although it has been since Sept 2010.

A 4th one has pipped!

Someone said watching water boil....I would almost agree except as of right now that would be more exciting. I know, I know patience patience.

Just out of curiosity the 4 that pipped so far are my large breeds. My silkie eggs haven't pipped yet. Has anyone ever noticed that the large breeds seem to hatch earlier or earlier than bantam breeds? I seem to remember the same thing happened the last time.

I think you are correct about the larger breeds hatching sooner. My little mixed chicks pop out like popcorn and the Silkies put me on edge EVERY time!

I have silkies, the only chickens we have. Our first hatch was slow and did not hatch at 21 days, closer to 23
 
actualy she laid 11 eggs and i found her setting on them under the hen house and i put her and the eggs in my broody house . On day 12 I candled and removed 6 duds and put the rest back under her.
