Hello All!

I've got 4 Polish frizzle eggs that start lockdown tomorrow.........7 Buckeyes that will hopefully hatch next week........

I had started out with 20 Polish eggs, and two arrived cracked, and then only four developed....I blame rough handling through the post......But that's OK! The four will be special!

The buckeyes started with 12 eggs, two broken, and so I threw out three that weren't developed......

Good luck to all!

Still have the one pip that has gotten bigger. Ya'll think good thoughts for the cochin eggs.....if one would pip I would be so excited!

Think one chick's a Light Sussex, one a Brahma x, the third a Coucou de France. They're soaking up some sun in their brooder on the terrace: UV by day, IR by night.

My eggs are due to start hatching between the 15 and 16th. Just three days to go until the day!! I have 22 mixed breed eggs in there and at last candling ALL 22 were growing and jumping YAY

I also have 19 jumbo coturnix due to hatch then too. I had 30 shipped but only 19 were veining. Hoping those all hatch out safely so my other three coturnix will have some other mates.

Hatching by proxy is hard! I want to see them!
Day 20: 4 of 28 pipped and peeping... What will come out?

Three from the mixed flock are out and in the inside brooder.

Seven, read it SEVEN, pips in the incubator!!! And TWO are cochin eggs!!!

This is so cool.....day 21 in an hour and a half....so I feel like I have a chance at a pretty good hatch!

Just give me some Cochins!!

Today started LOCK DOWN for me. I still have 20 RIR and 8 EEs, and they all still look good.

So far 14 of 28 are hatched! The teacher in charge of the project said that 20/28 were developing normally at day 15, so a few more might be on the way.
All the peeps so far are black, some with white wingtips or tails, no sign thus far that my secondayr roo had any influence on the gene pool at all. Maybe some are just dark blue? We can hope!
